I admire your videos and you encourage me to strive to be a better hunter. Would love to camp and do a few days in the back country. Your an inspiration to me young brother. God bless and well wishes stay safe my friend 🙏
Dude what a buck it looked like 4 or 5 by 6 I just love you videos I feel like imm on the hunt with you What an opening day Just love the excitment in ur voice and over all compassion for the outdoors GET WORK KEEP IT UP looking forward to more videos!!!
What a great looking buck. We have a ton of hybrids up by us in Okanagan Highlands, they can make some antlers that just make you scratch your head in confusion!
Hey, Samong, my guess is a non-typical whitetail. The eye guard is way too big for a muley, just a split G2. I have seen a buck with a double main beam here by the house a few years ago, similar to that shed. What a cranker though, hope you see him too.
I vote Whitetail on that awesome shed. Seeing Whitetails with forks isn't that uncommon, but seeing muley's with massive browtines like that is almost unheard of.
I say whitetail shed. If you hadn’t seen the muley you would say it was a whitetail all day with that eye guard. Sweet find and a great start to your camp
can i ask you to tell me how you pack your rifle on your hunts? i see you use while you are hiking a sling for the gun butt but how is it attached under your arm? Great videos
Took my son out there to late buck for modern first year. Gmu 121 with his new 6.5 creed. Did some doe calls after hiking in and finding a area he could have a shot. "He said dad.. you hear that wood pecker?" I said not a woodpecker. Thats a buck coming to say Hi. Walked out to the tree line 30yards. Done. Dropped. First buck is a solid 5pt.. told him crap you set the bar for yourself pretty high for your first deer 😂🎉 i love eastern wa
That drop could very well be a cross breed. My dad's friend shot a massive 4-point one year that had the main beam, eye guards and tines of a white tail (no forks on the tines) but had a black tip on his tail. From the neck up you would swear whitey but from the ass, definitely muley. There are both whitetail and mule deer in the area, so very well could be that the shed you found was a hybrid also.
Next time you get that close and you've made too much noise, try calling. He most likely would have returned to that bed eventually. He probably maneuvered around to scent check where the noise was coming from. Perhaps moving to the opposite side of his bedding location and sitting for a couple hours might have been successful.
So I'm stuck when it comes to buying a new gun. Currently have a Savage in 6.5 creedmor. Got ny first buck with it this year in California. Im stuck with 1 bullet (hand loads) in my state. Im stuck between a 7 PRC and a 7 Rem Mag. Currently looking at a Ruger American Go Wild in 7 PRC or the CVA Cascade in 7 Rem Mag. Same price point, both have their pros and cons, what is your opinion?
7 mag offers a whole bunch of different factory loaded bullet and weight options for you to test out and find one that shoots great in your rifle BUT that gets spendy fast. I went through 10 factory loads before finding the one my rifle shot the best. 7prc has fewer option for factory but I haven’t found one that doesn’t group very well out of my rifle. Go with the cascade in either cartridge and you will be happy. Only my opinion though, you do you my man.
Under any "normal" hunting distances, the ballistic performance between the two is negligible - both will pack a punch. I don't think deer will know whether they got hit by a 7 PRC or a 7 Mag. Based on the rifle models alone, I'd go 7 Mag because I think the CVA Cascade is a slightly better rifle for hunting than the Ruger AGW (just my opinion). Based on the fact that you hand load, I don't think you will have an issue with finding components for both cartridges or finding a load that shoots well. It might sound redundant, but I do like the beltless design of the 7 PRC over the belted 7 mag.
In genetic studies of wild deer ranging from West Texas to Alberta, scientists found that hybrids can make up to 14% of a given population where the species overlap, although proportions below 6% seem to be more common. Depending on the location in question, whitetail and mule deer can hybridize readily. These hybrids may look and act a little funky, but they can survive into adulthood. It would be very cool to have a shot at one, you guys are lucky
You did the right thing, and all you could possibly do on that one. Mature mule deer bucks are the smartest animals I hunt. They know where to bed, and are always looking for danger. Of course some States have rifle seasons during the rut which is not fair at all, and the big boys are preoccupied, and not in their right mind. You are out there when these guys are extremely wary, and always watching for predators. I wish you luck finding him again, and hope he makes a mistake. I believe that shed is his, and he likely lives there. You are in his house, so he will not be easy to kill. Good luck.
Id say Black tail , it did not bounce off . Has tail like a black tail , black tail have carectoristics of Mulies hornes , Just smaller version of horns and run more like white tails , no bounce..
I think to find a buck of that caliber and to hike 1800 yards and stock within 113 yards from him is a win whether you got him or not. that is hunting thank you for not taking a 900 yard unethical shot like everyone else on TH-cam now days
He’s a giant mature Buck for a reason, he’s smart
Your solo moose hunt encouraged me to go solo. Best decision ever. It a whole different vibe and mood doing solo
I admire your videos and you encourage me to strive to be a better hunter. Would love to camp and do a few days in the back country. Your an inspiration to me young brother. God bless and well wishes stay safe my friend 🙏
Great stuff Samong, thats a tough call on the shed. One of the tougher calls ive ever seen actually but my vote is whitetail. That eyeguard
Another great vid. Really been enjoying your content. Some of the best hunting videos. Thanks for sharing
Your attitude is so strong man. Great videos
Good to see you and Chinew together once again

Your channel has become one of my favorites!!!
Whoo-hoo! What a start to the hunt, and that shed is a sweet find!
I feel like that bird came in and told him. Bird flys in, buck stands alert.
Cool buck! I hope you put some time into finding the other side.
Its a win to even get to see one like that here.
Definitely looks like a stud whitetail shed..but I could see where the forks make it deceiving. Either way, awesome find!!
Great video and content, sweet shed too!

Awesome video man, and that was a beautiful buck!
Ain't his first season with people trying to kill him. They're better than us, and we're in their house. Love your content man keep grinding!
You're living the dream my friend best of luck on you hunting adventures !! Awesome !
Daniel from central Mississippi 🦌🦌
That blacktail buck from the other vid was amazing, what a great buck.
Awesome buck you found!
I was being quiet for you. That was a nice one!
Great video man, gets me excited watching
Another quality video and I hope you find that monster buck.
Thanks Samong! 👍
Great video Sy! Keep it up.
Can’t wait for the next video!!
You should go to strawberry or twainharte
Looks like a mule deer shed and very identical rack figure as that buck you just chased.
Wow
That's a whitey shed. Double main beam.
@@nt3523 nice, interesting what these bucks can surprise us with
@@nt3523 100% agree. Thats a whitetail shed
I believe you found a beautiful, non-typical Whitetail shed. Mule deer and WT have been know to cross breed too.
Mule deer shed all the way
That was a mule deer shed
@@johnmahoney7876white tail shed 100%.
Hybrid shed 1000%

Man, that is awesome. You are a terrible dad to start your son off with a 5-point buck 😂😂
Just kidding, that is so cool. Big congrats to your son!
nice video buddy and that was a great deer
Love your content!!! What cell phone to spotting scope adapter do you use?
That shed to me looks like a cross between white and mule badass buck!
I enjoy watching your hunts! Thank you!
Thanks for watching! I appreciate you!
They cross breed sometimes. I've had mule deer with whitetail antlers.
That drop could very well be a cross breed. My dad's friend shot a massive 4-point one year that had the main beam, eye guards and tines of a white tail (no forks on the tines) but had a black tip on his tail.

Whitetail shed. A very nice one...
Samong you should go to California and see if you get anything
Wow presented by Vortex… going bigtime now!!!
Don't sweat the snide comments Samong, it just comes with the territory the more successful you become. Keep the content coming.
Good video on your first day.
Great looking buck awesome ❤❤😂😂
Great opening day hunt and stalk. Exciting!
Vortex needs to give this man a better scope 😏
Agreed 😂
Loved the video!
That shed is crazy
Excellent hunt.
I bet that's his shed yes looks similar 😮man stud shed great find I'd head back in search hard
Um, that's a whitetail shed.
Great hunt!! That was a nice buck
Great looking country 👍🏼 better luck next time
A very nice Mule Deer Shed, brother. Still watching and hunting with ya.
I’m gonna say Muley shed. Great find I’m jealous
Whitetail shed.
Samong can you do crossbow hunting..please,please🙏
Whitetails have been known to breed with mule deer
The one that got away 😢. Going to be one of those stories lol
what brand of rifle and caliber are you using?
Another great video, are you hunting public ground?
Thanks! Yes, this is public land.
Maybe you’ll get on him again if it’s a first day hunt! That shed is awesome!!!🦌🇺🇸
Great footage!! I’m saying WT shed
Im from Salem Oregon I would like to go hunt with you let me know if that can happen
What a buck!!! Wow 😮
Next time you get that close and you've made too much noise, try calling.
He most likely would have returned to that bed eventually. He probably maneuvered around to scent check where the noise was coming from.

What GMU are you hunting if you dont mind me asking
Are you in California?
Looks like you’ve been using your Stone Glacier pack in the last few hunts. Do you prefer it over the Exo Mountain pack?

Looks like a HYBIRD. Cross between the two. 😊
Good hunt!
That was a decent buck for sure, and that is definitely a whitetail shed.
I think thats a Whitetail Muley cross. We find where I'm at. Which isn't to far from there.
@@208nGrateI agree, I shot one similar to that and biologist told me it was cross breed

It makes for some awesome antler! Thats for sure. They always seem to carry and hold mass.
What gun you running here?
That was the knarliest shed ever.
Though it looked to me as a white tail shed
That shed could be a hybrid.
SAM
DID SOMEONE SPONSOR YOUR NEW RIFLE?
Nice buck what good genetics in that area
What spotting scope are you using! 1900 yards and you can still see all that.
I'm using the Vortex Razor HD 13-39x56 spotter! It's actually the smallest Razor spotter that Vortex offers!
@@SamongOutdoors awesome thanks! I'll check them out for sure!
Man very nice buck!!!

That's a double main beam whitetail shed.
Mule shed. Great job not taking a bad shot.
Id say Black tail , it did not bounce off . Has tail like a black tail , black tail have carectoristics of Mulies hornes , Just smaller version of horns and run more like white tails , no bounce..
He wasn't quite sure what was going on uphill from him, but wasn't going to stick around and find out.
Giant Washington whitetail shed buddy.. need to find him for sure
Let's go!
Wish everyday could be like that. WA hunting ain’t easy lol I do west side lol. Amazing buck tho
That is a old man!
that shed is insannne haha
Dang that was a Dandy Buck!
That’s a whitetail shed
I agree broski Mule Deer
That buck went to escape and evade school
I think to find a buck of that caliber and to hike 1800 yards and stock within 113 yards from him is a win whether you got him or not. that is hunting thank you for not taking a 900 yard unethical shot like everyone else on TH-cam now days
That was a pretty good buck I've seen others that would make him look small
I counted 8 on one side
Mule deer shed for sure
Is mula deer
Go get that big stout snaggletooth'd buck. Happy hunting.
N/E Washington, my Bro. In Law calls them "White Mules"....and admires the grealy.
