Not to brag but that scene is a poor example of what it used to be like around here. Looks like a group of three year old deer. Mule deer numbers are way down and mature bucks are very few and far between.

I hear ya but compared to down here it looks good.
Hunting the promised land
Late August it used to be common to see up to forty similar sized bucks in a group in certain agricultural areas.
Sad to see how much we have lost from a hunters perspective.
However coming from a grain farming family it was frustrating to know we were suffering crop losses of similar value to what cattlemen such as in Bear Valleys wolf thread are losing now. Probably more once all factors are considered.
The winter of 2006 I think was a bad one... Prior to that the quality of good deer sightings was way up there...Nice pic dino !!
I want to try 7-35. Never been there before. any pointers of where to go or not to go?
Get it on the ground, that's when the work starts
Very nice.....
