Southern B.C. 6x6 monster muley live pics

[huntinnut]

I found this site a while ago, and have been lurking since. This year I've become obsessed with muley hunting our group took two nice bucks.

I was sent these pics from a friend yesterday. He took them last week, and for our area he is a monster. A 180 buck is usually a big deal. Any guesses on how tall those G2's are? Gross score?

I put some other pictures of this buck in the photo gallery.

Karl.

[Will]

I dunno the driver's side G1 looks abit weak...or none existent !

I'd have to pass........











:lol:
Nice Buck !

[patbrennan]

Karl, beautiful buck. I'd guess he's in the 180s, can't tell the weight or balance and his tines don't look extra long.
Again, beautiful buck!

[huntinnut]

I have a pics that show him much better, but I had to size it down so much to attach.. How do I post better pictures? Can I link to this sites photo gallery?

[Will]

Can I link to this sites photo gallery?
Yes.......:D

[Elkhound]

Too late i stared at him dumbfounded to long and he ran away.

Thats cause you would be in awe at seeing something with any antlers:biggrin:

i have only seen one deer in six years that had bone on his head.He tasted good.Been so long i forgot what they looked like.Probably have to pull the regs out and compare the pictures to make sure before i shoot.:confused:

[ruger#1]

that is one nice looking buck, thanks

[tooley]

Tough to tell with that pic but I'd bet he's more than 180.

[tooley]

Hey if you want to pm me directions to where you seen him I'll see if I can get a better pic, then we'll know!

[WoodOx]

Real nice buck - congrats on finding him and best of luck tagging him next year!

I would argue hed be into the 190s, looks way to big of a frame to be in the 180s. Maybe net 180s?

Anyways, great pics - thanks for a teaser for next season!

[proguide66]

Ive got a 193 gross buck above the computor on the wall...my buck would sit inside the one in the picture !!.......

[chevy]

I think that deer is better than 180

[bc-shedder]

[chevy]

180 gross i think not he is a bit better than that that thing is a cannon i got a 180 net typical on the wall and the buck in these pics dwarfs mine by far unless this deer in the pic has a body half the size of a doe and the antlers just look big but i doubt that this buck is a pig for sure

[Lil Buck]

I sure think it is better than 180

That is a great buck.. prob 195+

Congrats on the great pics..

Lb:cool:

[dana]

That is one sweet looking buck! Looks to be pushing that 200 inch NT mark. No doubt a Shooter! Those are some great pics. Thanks for sharing them.

[huntinnut]

bc-shedder, thanks for putting those up for me....

When I first saw the pics I knew he was an awesome buck for our area. I've only ever seen one other buck that might be comparable to this one, and i'm out in the bush 200+ days a year doing forest development work.

We're going to try hunting that area hard next year. He likely just came down the mountain a ways from where they were rutting. There's really not that much snow here yet (creston area) so maybe he hasn't moved that far...???

I've been comparing the pic to my buddy's 181 and my 173 gross bucks from this year and he seems to easily gross over 200NT. It's been a good year for mulies around here with at least 5 or 6 taken in the 180's.

Those G2's just seem to go up forever...

[Alpine85]

Wicked buck!!! no doubt an inline buck :shock:.... now you just gotta be there when he drops, hope to see some pics of you holding his sheds, in the weeks to come!

[tufferthandug]

Nice find! Hopefully you can get his sheds before the critters start chewing on them.

I wouldn't think that buck would have a problem hittin' 200.

[M.Dean]

Creston area Eh!!! How far is that from the Toll Booth???

[Derek_Erickson]

Yea. No second guess there, shoot till he drops!

[Kody94]

I got a copy of the original photogs e-mailed to me too. That is a dandy buck alright...easily in the 200 NT ballpark.

I have a question for ya though....advertising a buck like that on a website like this, and admitting where it came from....are you trying to make Creston the next Clearwater??? :evil: :)

Cheers,
4Ster

[Derek_Erickson]

Hope fully

[Kody94]

Since the cat is out of the bag anyway ;-), here are a couple "close ups" of the other pics that huntinnut posted....

It sure is a purty "Trash Factor" buck. Its gotta go about 31 to 32" wide with those cheaters. 18 to 20" G2s, weak fronts, but at least 22 to 25" of trash, IMHO. Very sweet.

Cheers,

[huntinnut]

Sssster, I don't see why saying where the ballpark area from which this buck comes from makes any difference at all. Now if I started naming drainages or something like that, that's different. There is alot of country around. I also stated that I felt this was a really rare occurence for around here... Virtually every area in the interior produces the odd 200 inch buck...

No worries. Was just teasin'.....although I probably would have lied about it. :)

Yeah..only 4000 kms of logging roads there.. Could be anywhere from the ferry landing on kootenay lake to the summit of the salmo creston ..to yahk cut off.. Small area compared to ..... The whole province... shouldn't take you more than 70 days to cover it all... :shock:

[M.Dean]

ClearWhere??? It's "CRESTON"!! This should take the pressure of region 3!!! Hope to see everyone there next fall!!!

Kinda sounds like the Clearwater area. LOL! Those that think there is a 200 incher behind every tree must be disappointed when they can't even find a dink 4 point to cut their tag on.

Seeing the upclose pics, I think that buck will be close to 210. Those backs are just freakin huge.

The more I look at it and run the math in my head, the more I tend to agree with that.

Even though the fronts look a little weak, the main beams have to be 25" or so.

[Derek_Erickson]

Those photo's arent really closeup, just cropped and zoomed in a bit, however it still is a dandy, wish they had a good camera

[bruin]

I wonder how many does he bred this year?? Great buck, thanks for the pics

[115 or bust]

I'd have to agree with the boys here my old man has a mulie went 212 and its not as wide as that but has a little more mass. I'd have to think its pushing 200

[Kody94]

That's why I called them "closeup". ;) I took the higher res version of the previously posted pics that I had on-hand, and cropped/resized a bit....thought that was pretty obvious. :p :)

I do wish the pics were clearer too....just happy the fella got pics at all though, so we can all enjoy it.

[Derek_Erickson]

Agreed :-P

[BCJunior]

Pretty weak buck, prolly would pass it up.


Ya right...LOL, definitly a great looking animal dont get to many that size.

Love the live pic, really shows the strength and size of the buck.

[Will]

I think I just soiled myself........:shock:

I checked out this buck in the gallery.Thats a huge buck.Did you say you waited to long and missed an opportunity to shoot?

He was too busy taking pictures...........:oops:
:lol:;)

[legal-hunter]

I think he will be 200 non typ but cant wait for u 2 tell the real score wen u pick up his sheds

[mark]

Awesome buck, very nice to catch him on film! Hes in the 200 club for sure, and then some! Id keep a close eye on that guy, and find his sheds as soon as they hit the ground!

[MEATMAN30_06]

Beauty buck 200+ easy. A definite wall hanger.

[BlacktailStalker]

I'd be shootin' two loads if I saw that buck.
One from my rifle and one in my pants :)

[Orangethunder]

Awesome buck, thanks for the pics. I would guess he is in the 200-215 mark. Super tall and he does have decent mass...:lol:

Glad to see a great buck is alive and well. I had the unfortune of coming across a great buck on Friday evening without a camera:eek:. While he didn't have the extra's this guy does his main frame was pretty close. I watched him walk a fenceline right past someones front window. I would have guessed him at 28 wide and 24 tall, good forks... again I kick myself for leaving my camera:frown:.

Thanks again for sharing those pics.

Cheers

[BCrams]

Thats a super buck! There's no question he will be 200 plus with the trash points.

[kishman]

who cares.... Boom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


X2.........

[Brambles]

I'd be keeping tabs on him if at all possible

[hunter1947]

Yes that is a very nice buck ,he goes in the hi 170 class for sure.
