weve had this happen on our ranch in parker county... we back up to a high fence. So it wasnt to hard to guess were they came from .. we knew the ranch manager very well and agreed to not shott them if we saw them.... 4 weeks later a guy about amile down the way shot their 9 X 9 under his feeder.

Hey my place is east of Abilene too. I'd really like to know where this is at. You can PM me if you don't want it public.

We had a place west of Abilene and shot a 6x6 bull red stag.. Could be what it was?

Looks a lot like an elk... Wish one would cross @ my feeder. I would be forced to ground check him.....

I have heard stories of a Red Stag roaming the area east of Abilene. Think someone took him last month.
