That is one bad deer. Post up the hundreds of good ones that make it to maturity because of AR's
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

More than likely a pedicel/body injury. He will more than likely return to normal next year
If you shoot a young deer because a neighbor will shoot it, you are that neighbor.

A couple of those look like 2.5 year olds to me. I always wonder why it bothers someone so much, even if they have to pass up a 3.5 year old every once in a while?

Where I live antlers are normally lil baskets. With the restrictions that cuts down on the meat in the freezer.. When the bucks are 5 or so they still have lil baskets. Very bad gene pools. This year----a nice 10 pointer wondered over. Funny thing is 1/4 mile from me we see large racks. The lay of the land is no difference.
 It's the time spent in God's creation with family and friends making memories that counts.

Mine is 2-4 progression, wouldn't consider shooting him until next year & will probably let him slide bc of a cpl others in his age class. I want him to grow those kickers and triple/split brows he did at 3.
