Dont ever know those old mountain deer travel long distances.
Nope, don't know the man.
It could be, too bad I didn't have a trail camera photo of him!

I killed my second largest deer and my largest wild hog on big frog MTN, hunting it Monday through Christmas day.

This is my buck, but I'm new to posting here. Once I figure it out I'll add more photos.

I heard his awesome sister and his dad went to check the trail camera and that's where they first got sight of him. He tracked him down 3 days later!

He might agree with that sometimes.. But probably not too often.
Welcome to the site "awesome" sister
, heck of a deer!!the pics I saw that were sent to me from Facebook looked like the head wasn't strapped to the pack. Grainy pic from being forwarded, so hard to tell. I don't know why anyone would drag a whole deer out anymore, lot easier to quarter and pack. Whitetails are a lot lighter than elk, that's for sure.

It took some rigging with a strap and constant readjusting, but I eventually got it out lol My dad, sister, and cousin met me in the area and split the meat between their backpacks. Shot the deer at 9 AM. Made it back to my truck at 5 PM.

I don't like being the guy the mark out a background, but this would be a recognizable spot.Attachments

Have you had an opportunity to score that sucker yet…? He's gonna score good!
Congrats on a great mountain buck. Hope you didn't mind me posting the pic on here. Alot of hunters don't know how hard it is hunting those mountain deer. Every hunter needs to experience mountain hunting at least once.

No I don't mind at all. A buck like that deserves to be seen. I agree, mountain hunting is definitely an entirely different world. I won't even get started on how tricky the mountains can make turkey hunting. But I love those mountains. They're rough, but all the effort is worth it, and there's no place I'd rather be.
