This is a picture of the buck my friend and co-worker killed on Oct.9, 2004. It's a 5x2 with great eyeguards. It is 23" wide. He took it in zone B2.
He said he hadn't seen a buck all season until he saw this one. We got some cold rain on Friday so he was anxious to be out on the hunt Saturday morning. Along about 8:30 he noticed some does moving down a manzanita covered ridge about 100 yards from him. He stopped to glass and behind the does came this buck! None of the deer saw him so he took his time and made a clean one shot kill. He didn't realize how big it was until he got up to it.
Thought you would enjoy seeing it. The dogs in the picture are just camp dogs and not relevant to the hunt.
