Found this buck on sunday...broken main beam on his right antler. He stood there for about two minutes at 125 meters...pic taken through a Zeiss spotter. He'll be worth a look next year.

About 90% of the rednecks where I am from would have shot that regardless!! Must be nice to be in the land of milk and honey.

Still rutting hard up here even though we've had a very mild fall. It will start to taper off pretty quick in the next few days.
I think a guy will see a lot of broken points on dry years. There hasnt been too many broken points up here this year. I suspect this guy got that antler wedged into a tree somehow and broke it off....probably not from fighting. It's not real common to see mule deer bucks going at it like whitetails do. I've seen some crazy brutal fights between whitetail bucks.

Not to hijack your thread.
What do you have for an adapter for the Zeiss spotter? Or you just focused right through the eyepiece.

I hand held the camera for that shot but I do have a Zeiss adapter that I use if I'm not going out in the hills "light".
