We have had difficulty locating him for photographing because of the extensive travel time just to reach his haunts. I have, managed to take some menial photographs of him on one occasion. (I plan to post them in the future) We managed to get these photos by checking water hole after water hole until we found a good set of tracks at one of them. We had little hope of finding Black Velvet there as the one time we photographed him he was 5 miles from this particular location. You can imagine our surprise when we checked the camera and found that Black Velvet had visited. I don’t plan to rest until i get some wall hanger photos of this buck so keep watching, and i will keep hoping for an incredibly lucky break because that’s what its going to take with a buck as Elusive as this one is turning out to be…….By the way in the other photos I have he clearly has 8 possibly 9 points on one side and 5 on the other.
