What the heck is this?

Sister-in-law sent me this picture of critters she and her husband feed in their backyard. They live in a Kerrville neighborhood.

Supper

STX you don't eat you own pets do you?

I have a Matthews that is REALLY quite and can run a Slick Trick into that Barrel and be cleaned up and out of there Lickety Split like a thief in the Night

Good eating

Crossbow target.

Those exotic pets had better not cross the fence is all I can say.

If you REALLY don't know, they are axis deer. How the heck does your sister-in-law not know?

If problematic, my self and my Club members would be happy to relieve your family of this nuisance of a deer.

I'm sure they know what they are but I personally have never seen one that I can recall.

Well then yeah, they're axis deer. Great eating. Most people would rather shoot these (to eat) than a WT
Probably everybody who replied to this!

Urban deer hunting poses numerous challenges. The deer will stay bedded while you are mowing your yard but the minute you put on camo and carry your bow to the stand they are gone...they can be just as savvy as big woods animals. I for one support urban deer hunting.

Yeah, I'd be happy to bring my Excalibur out there....

yep

Need a bow emoji on here

That is one of the best eating critters there is

Good comparison there of the size difference between white-tails and Axis.

to me the best eating of all, and a free range one is more of a trophy than one of those freak high fence deer with a tag in his ear
