Fall Classic

[buzzsaw]

I went up north mid week last week with my friend Stan and we were able to come away with a few keeper images. The first one is my favorite.

[fishinchicks]

I'd have to go with the first one as well. The leaves in the BG of the first helps make it my favorite.

[Dbl]

Beautiful work Mike. I can see why the first is a favorite.

[Steve Foss]

Great shots both, Mike. That first one's rack has tons of character, and as chicks said the fall color adds a nice seasonal context. Very cool!

[mmeyer]

Very nice indeed Buzz! I'll go with the first as well for all of the reasons already mentioned.

[MN Shutterbug]

Nice. I love the rack on that brute. It's extremely rare to happen across a buck in daylight around here.

[yakfisher]

That first one should be in the monthly challenge, and then enter it into a contest and win something. Gorgeous shots.

[Jim Almquist]

Great looking shots Mike now if they would just show up on opening day

[Steve Foss]

I think it would be an appropriate favor for this moderator if buzz would e-mail me some GPS coords for that bruiser.

[DMN]

Nice shots, after looking at the buck I see where all the antler points went from the spikes and forkys I see around here.

You'll have to sweeten the pot brotha Steve. Ya know its Deer season and the hunters checking in here are probably getting antler envey about now. I know I've never seen anything over a 12 pointer myself while sitting on a stand, let alone a 22, 23 or 24 pointer like this one. (I assume you count all the lil tines) Heck, how many do you guys count? Here is a better angle for counting I think.

[yakfisher]

I think they count anything longer than 1", but I'm not a deer hunter. I like that last shot too.

[Jim Almquist]

The first buck looked like it might be starting to get a swollen neck but the 2nd buck looks like it has a was to go before it gets into a rut

[finnbay]

What a pretty deer! Great shot!

[brassman]

I looked at thepictures and thought man what a nice buck then Jimalm brought up the fact that there are plural bucks. two hosses. I wouldn't have been pressing the shutter on those things, I would have been pulling the release on my bow

[MARINERMAGNUM]

Beautiful colors! great job!

[Royce Aardahl]

Dandys! Looks like a 17 and a 20 pointer. WOW! Being a hunter my jaw dropped. I'm happy with 8 points!! LOL

[buzzsaw]

Bigguns!! I'm a hunter as well, just not as much as I used to be.

[Deitz Dittrich]

HOly monster Racks!!!! On a deer farm Buzzie?

[buzzsaw]

If you know of one Dietz, lemme know.

[Deitz Dittrich]

Know of quite a few, how many you want? Couple of em not too far from my house, If I had to guess there are probably 30-40 registered deer farms in MN. But thats just a guess. There is a guy up here that this summer had a huge Elk in his pen, havn't driven out that way to see if he still had him or not. I used to ride my bike that way just to get a look at the beast!!! There is a red deer farm in Center City, them are cool lookin things for sure. Then of coarse we have the Buffalo in Lindstrom too..
