KSL Outdoors Snapshot of the Week: July 18, 2026


Save Story

Our winner this week has nicknamed this buck mule-deer the "Fire Buck." Stacy Sorenson and her husband are raising their girls to hunt, so looking for big bucks is something they love to do. They once saw a picture of this city buck and decided to try and go find him, and boy did they. Stacy says when you see him in person, it's jaw-dropping, She says it's not every day you get to see a cool cactus buck like this, one of the most awesome deer one can see. That is a giant buck, and the excellent photos won Stacy our big prize for being the Snapshot of the Week.
