I've seen something like this before! ("Buck in a Truck") 😱🤭🤣

All loaded up and ready to go! Talk about getting the cart before the horse lol

Not the greatest at photography, but here's a couple of bucks I took today as they were standing right in front of my truck and didn't run off right away- crazy behavior during the rut!

Just love the rut in Area 231 (specifically Eagle, Rose, and Dry Valleys). Bucks (big and small), does, and fawns running everywhere or just hanging out in the fields. Where about a month ago you may have caught a dozen deer- now probably more than 300 in all areas! 😲😉

Driving through Eagle Valley this am- there were three lesser bull elk in Gloeckner's field, and I was amazed to catch a quick clip of this larger bull that was standing in the road by Tim Olson's mailbox!

Whitetail buck heaven!

Rare for me to catch- elk on Panaca summit on October 24, 2024!👍

Always looking for something different or unusual: here's a little town buck with a tangle of twine in his rack! (Caliente, NV)

Not very clear... but two decent bucks at edge of Caliente- they were just sparring a little; might get more serious during the rut!🤭

Joey Vincent's big ol' gnarly-racked Lincoln County buck! Dandy!

Throwback to the 1970's: Snow Canyon, Independence Mts. of Elko County. One of my last horseback hunts and pack-outs. I flushed a group of 7 bucks, missed some shots. I concentrated on one of the bigger bucks (turned out to be the SMALLEST!). Forever dragging around the proverbial "IF ONLY..."!😲🤭

Cornfield bucks (Panaca, NV) August 9th.

Panaca town bucks for 2024 in velvet (July).

Spring Valley (Area 231) bucks this morning- a 4x3 and a 5x4- couldn't get them to pose as the headed over a hill!

Out chasing elk with my camcorder- I have seen bull elk (one bachelor herd of 20+ animals). They are very skittish, and are off and running for the trees before dawn. Cows and calves are only skittish when alerted by a lead cow. And some of the little ones hang around crying for their mommas!

Throwback to 2023: One of my most memorable encounters of "town bucks" in Panaca, Nevada.

24/06/2024

Doing a bit of Video "elk hunting": All my encounters have been in low-light before sunup. This was best footage I could muster, but I saw close to a hundred elk, and a dandy bachelor group of 20+ animals (Pearson Ranch, Area 231).

Didn't get out much again... but a few! (I wish the start date would be changed back to April 1. Not enjoyable to hunt for sheds when weather is warming up, and bugs and snakes are out!)
