lunkerhunter,
By "South Hills" I'm assuming you are talking about units 54 and 55. I took these pictures in three different general season units in Eastern Idaho. Currently you have to draw a tag if you want to hunt with a rifle hunt in units 54 and 55. I attempted to draw a moose tag this year (didn't draw[
]) so I wasn't eligible to apply for deer, elk or antelope controlled hunts this year. Reelady,
I din't have to be too sneaky to take most of the pictures. With the exception of two of the pictures all of the deer were at least 200 yards away. The deer in a couple of the pictures were more than 3/4 of a mile away. I use my spotting scope as a telephoto lens when take long distance pictures.
The deer in the the below picture was about 225 yards away. If there is good lighting I can get fairly good pictures through my spotting scope.
