I'm having a little trouble judging their racks without a good glass. The one on the far left and the one in the middle look to be the best and although the one in the center has a good spread I think I'll take the one on the far left just for his mass... what do you think Jack?

I think you are both correct. I was helping a cousin with his haying operation as he had injured his back. Deer, moose, elk and bear all abound in the area. I was not there for the season but I suspect the backstraps have long since been enjoyed and at least two very good racks are on display over a ranch entrance or gracing a gun room. The locals who see this every day know exactly where to be as the sun is rising on opening day. If I had had the big lens with me that day, we could have a better image from which to determine the trophy vs the tender. My camera took a beating that week banging around in tractors, but I did get some great shots.
Cheers, Jack

Most of all I love the fall... However, Columbia river salmon and steelhead runs are way above average and it really just got warm here this week. The stone flys are gone but but lots of fishing remains. I love to fish but pictures like this get me thinking of autumn. Thanks Jack
