I buy a tag every year but have never killed one.
I like watching them. If we could still post videos I would post my calling instructional videos. Tikka gave me two thumbs up.

A few years back, I found several nice bucks in the same canyon. Most years, this place held a few nice ones. Unfortunately, all these bucks perished due to the harsh winter that year. Also unfortunately, the road was closed a few years later, and I haven't been able to get in there anymore. The last few pics are not as good due to snowy conditions.

Back 2018, I took a drive and found several nice bucks one day. Here they are. BTW, this was after the last hard winter of '16-'17. Several nice bucks made it through that winter, as opposed to this past winter. The difference is stark.

One day I took a drive to the winter range and took some pics of these bucks.

Dang Ricochet, you got me with this one. Do you sell prints, of various sizes, of your photos?

Slim and Cyclops. Late February. Slim was a major factor in a fight. I never saw another buck square up with him. They always backed down, even much bigger bucks. I guess they all knew with that slim rack he could get inside and cause some real damage.

I've seen this eagle for many years. He has a very distinctive black and gold head.

I should let everyone who cares know that that peak in the background is probably 30? miles behind those elk. A very distorted view that you can never see with your eyes.

Henceforth shall be known as “The Bluehair Ecosystem”.My red tails showed up at the nest again this year. I wonder where they go. Swallow’s and martins should be in a couple of weeks. I put out 4 new bluebird houses as this year’s habitat improvement project.

I put some water back to the trees, try to spray a few weeds, and keep the varmits trained to stay away so I figgered a few more bluebirds is a nice touch. I just try to be a good neighbor while I’m squatting here on the winter range.

After taking those pics, I moved on to another few areas and found these bucks to photograph.

I love that boxy looking guy. You’re fortunate to get to see more good bucks in a day than some of us will in a lifetime.

Came across this sign on a trail a few years back. It was high up on a seldom used trail so I had cell service. I sent it to my wife saying "You'll never guess where I'm at"

Work? I need you to explain that to my wife!
They are mean ugly buggers. I’ll put a few more from that fight in a couple of days.

I kept looking around later that day and found these bucks to take pics of. I'm not including pics of every nice buck I came across that day. The difference between 4-5 years ago and today is saddening. Actually from last winter to this past winter is very disheartening.

Picking up the groceries in the Fall before winter hits. Not worrying about the price of gas either!

A few years ago, I took an early November drive to the winter ranges to see if I could find some rutty bucks. No snow on the ground, but there's always a few bucks after the does regardless of the weather!

Next trip I found these bucks. That 3x3 is one of the biggest bodied bucks I've laid eyes on. What a beast. The rut is hard on these bucks. They beat each other up pretty good. Lots of eye injuries. Notice the big patch of hide missing on the one buck.
