  1. Blessed Mother of Touchdown, hear my prayer.
  2. OK. In my opinion and at my place (south Texas brush country) we’d let that buck go for two more years. Under normal circumstances his body will grow a bit more and then food energy will transfer to his antlers once his body is satisfied. Also, he’s got two more years as the dominate buck around the doe. No doubt he is mature but could “be better” and do some great gene spreading for you. I know you’re hard-pressed to pass on him. You’re in Bastrop County on 40 acres (and a mule) and he may be the best thing for miles. There would be no shame in taking him.
  3. @hookemATL where is your place? How large? How many hunters? Are the neighbors’ greedy gun mofos that blast everything for mere bragging rights? All this fits into the equation (when it shouldn’t).
  4. Yes, that deer would be shot on sight on a small tract place and by most deer hunters. Aging bucks on the hoof is an art based on key elements to look for and not a science. I’ve been doing it all morning That said, I surmise he’s a 4.5 year old buck. Flat back, firm non-sagging gut, normal sized brisket, firm neck, etc. @hookemATL might never have a better chance than now. Certainly if this buck hops a fence some other guy may take him without pause or reservation. It is a cruel and frustrating game.

  9. Cowboys now have 2 TEs that don’t immediately fall down after they catch the football. So refreshing.
