Bucks on the moon

ICMDEER · Aug 25, 2022

I was laying in my sleeping bag last week looking up at the moon and wondered if bucks live up there. So I set up my spotting scope and took a look. I had to zoom to 5,000 power to see well, but there they were. Nice mule deer bucks cruising on the moon. You can even see the curvature of the moon in one pic.

It just goes to show you, you have to look everywhere. Bucks are where you find them.

Not very good pics, but the moon is a long ways off.....

Nice!

You should get a doubler for your spotter, 10,000 power would really give you a better look!

Too bad we cant get a tag to go after them because we are all nonresidents.

Then you might be able to see if bucks are on Uranus.

I suggest you use a .375 cheytac to shoot that far

Those are big bodied bucks too. I bet that one weighs over 12 pounds.

AstroNOTS can't even get to the moon. How did those deer get there?!

If you apply for UT or NV the draw odds are about the same. ?

They mostly go there once the hunting pressure hits. At least the ones I scouted do. ?

Somebody get this man half a dozen hair ties and a needmore. He’s gonna need quite the man bun to pull off this shot. But obviously the needmore is capable…
