BIg Blacky Road kill in Lake Oswego.

[JB148]

Last Thursday evening I pulled the biggest bodied blacktail buck off HWY 43 in Lake Oswego I have ever seen. His (Horns)antlers were just over 12" inches long, and just over 5"inch bases. Sad deal I looked at his teeth and guessed him to be about 6 plus years old. Real sad deal. JB

You mean the dear had not shed his antlers yet?

i'm thinking he's talking NEW growth.

thats to bad, i believe i've heard of some big bucks around that area. to bad thats one less, but it happens.

 

[JB148]

Yes,
He was in velvet all new growth, which is amazing.JB

 

[UR1234]

It was probably just a skillet-greaser

 

[JB148]

UR1234,
I was told you know skillet greasers well as that is what you seem to shoot. I wish I would have thought to take a picture. I was devasted, he was a big heavy 4X4 last year about 20".

 

[UR1234]

Don't go shooting a skillet-greaser in UT

 

[JB148]

UR1234/Skillet greeser,

It's 350 plus, I will bring a bull home, first 7 days big bulls only. Now I have to figure out what a big bull looks like after looking at Oregon bulls all my life. JB
