I agree, i have seen some stud bucks from LA area defiantly much bigger then the deer n San Diego by at least 50lbs As well as D12 my buddy blasted a 5x4 last season weighed 170lbs !!!!! a total smoker muley

Makes sense..... this document was also made in 2002 13 years ago....... like shane lindsey says theya are a hybrid deer species...... the southern mule deer and blackmail deer have very similar tail patterns according to that publishing As far as i know i am hunting blacktail and according...

Yes there are blacktail throughout the entire state, D16 the zone i hunt and have been hunting has been a blackmail deer zone maxing out at about 0-120 lbs sir believe me i know my regs, my state, and the game i target.... if not blacktail, then what? defiantly not mule deer and defiantly not...

I dont mea to disrespect you sir but yes there are i can post many pics of my buddies deer they have taken, all in san diego...... all blacktail Or a simple google search on your part for deer species in San Diego will show a Blacktail as the deer species

I think what wedgy meant is that the black tip deer in comparison to mule deer tend to be smaller, and thinner skinned. Also most coastal zones in California all the way up through canada hold Black tail deer, eastern California still holds a lot of balk tail but also mule deer. For instance, in...

Wow great info Thanks a ton guys...... Loosing the deer that day defiantly made me loose confidence in bullet, caliber, and mostly myself....... i now shoot at least twice a week (I'm a very busy college student). I am thinking about trying a 130 gr VLD Hunting bullet... and see how it...

I don't know maybe i just need to get a 300 rum and shoot a bigger diameter bullet or something. i know a deer can be had with even a .22 cal bullet but i guess bigger bullet more room for error and more energy transfer? but thats a great picture i want to make some ballistic jelly and shoot...

the blood the land

Like i mentioned earlier i play the situation through my head daily and its very possible i hit him bad...... we did find a small bone fragment with a drop of blood while tracking about the size of a tooth ...... this is the only blood we had...... following pictures are of the terrain and...

i have an 80% 308 lower i need to get milled and i can't find anyone capable .. i don't want to buy a jig either...... you know of anyone with a machine set up for dpms pattern 308 lower ?

Ya i agree California is very messed up :( but thats why you get your magazines from arizona and save your mag release for your 80% AR builds :D You archery hunt D16 greyman? or pick up an AO tag? I'm hoping A22 is restrict this year and doesn't sell out so i can gdb one after my D16...

I took a standard regular broadside armpit shot should have been a double lung easily but the buck was never recovered :.( I bet if i took a shoulder shot it would shatter and throw all kinds of bone fragments around into tissues, and looking back now i wish i would have taken a shoulder...

I shot these from my Weatherby Vanguard S2 in 6.5 Creedmoor at 100 yards and while gathering up my targets and cleaning up my trash i followed the skid marks from the bullets passing through the paper and found these little gems. I shot my first buck with one of these and was unable to track...
