Was hoping to see some action on this thread! Hopefully I can add to this in 3 weeks!

Agreed! This is always my favorite thread of the year.

Yup, kind of funny not seeing this fill up, might be time to drum up some Wyoming guys who had the September 15 opener.

I’m heading west to Idaho in the morning. Hopefully I can get produce something to get this post rolling!!

We had a helluva opening weekend here locally in WY.

My brother and I doubled, both taking our best bucks. By some crazy chance, I found my target buck in the herd AFTER my brother dropped his deer.

Then, my lady got a great 3-pt Sunday night. Admittedly we mistook it for another buck at last light but she’s happy!

Amazing General season. Now to butcher.

Congrats on the bucks! I struck out. I had to cut my trip short, I tweaked my knee coming off the mountain. Sucks! Saw a lot of elk and pronghorn, but no deer. Still a good time though

Nice bucks.

A lot of you will remember AKaviator who posted some dandy pictures over the years. He bought a place in eastern Oregon where him and his wife winter. He finally drew a deer tag and took his biggest mule deer buck ever. Scored 197 and has a 30.5 inch spread.

Wow, what a buck. Even his face markings are notable.
