So i just got back from my Southern utah muzzleloader deer hunt and came across something that interested me. I was heading down to check out a water hole last week and on the side of the road was a set of 4 legs cut off at the knee. Now at first i thought for sure they were elk, but after hunting the area for the past 6 years ive never seen an elk in the area. Then i got to thinking that most elk ive seen killed have dark colored legs and this one had tan / gray legs like a mule deer. The biggest set of feet ive ever seen for a deer. Then i got to thinking about something. You could see the blood and clearly where they had drug the animal up the hill to the road through the sage. That led me to believe that it forsure wasnt an elk. So im getting on here to see if maybe somone has any idea about this buck because the feet were so old and worn the due claws were literally disintegrated. And after following the drag mark / blood trail to the gut pile i know for sure its a deer. But i really really wanna see the deer that went with the set of legs i found. east of pangquitch. I know its a long shot but its been bugging me for over a week now. I know there were a bunch of locals up there after a monster but i never saw him. Guess my curiosity has finally got the best of me
