Brown 180" Set

Daxter · Feb 26, 2005

Here are a couple of pics of a 180" set I found a couple of weeks ago on some BLM land in Utah. I had lost my digital camera so no "as they lay" pics, but I did find the camera and took these. The right antler is missing an eye guard and goes a little over 80" the left is 83" and some change, add a little spread and you get a 180" type buck. Wish I could have found one like him during my hunt.

They were about 300 yards apart, but it took me 2 hours to find the second antler. I was looking in the wrong direction until it started to get dark and on my way back I made one last big loop and about stepped on the the match in the dark. I got lucky, but I guess it makes up for all the trips when I hiked all afternoon and got skunked or only found one crusty old 2-point.

Went back to see if I could repeat any of the luck I had before in this area where I found the set. Here is a pic, of the only success I had that day. One little brown two-point. I guess that is how it goes. Good luck to everyone.
