Well I went and I came back with some good luck

We weren't allowed to shoot any large bucks as this is a population control type of hunt and the rules were that you had to shoot 4 does or small spikes before you could shoot a mature buck.

Blacktail....sounds like an interesting adventure. I think you mentioned it in an earlier post, but what are you allowed to hunt with over there and the important thing that all will ask.....pics?

Blacktail that sounds like a great hunt. I bet even without a shot at the trophy buck it was a good time. Those does will put some meat in the freezer for you anyway. Good luck in January. Steve

Thanks for the update Blacktail....I was aware of the regulations to hunt there, but am hopeing I come across someone in the future that will help us to get over there...I still have a few years of hunting left in me, and am sure the deer are not going to go to far from there in the mean time.....

Blacktail,

Are those fallow deer as good as eating as they sound?

How does one get invited in the first place? It sounds like you have too get to the island on your own boat, or is there a small ferry? I agree with Qns cowboy, I won't be hunting there anytime soon, but one day maybe. Cool story of a good hunt. Thx
