Probably not 13 inches unless that's a west Texas deer. The farther west you go, the bigger the ears. Hunted many years near Snyder and those bucks were routinely 14 - 15 inch tip to tip on their ears.
Silver spurs and gold tequila keep me hanging on. Pretty girls and old cantinas give me shelter from the storm.

No. Comanche county has some bruisers. That deer has great potential in a couple of years. Hold off for a bigun.
Life is too short, as is. Don't chance it. Don't text and drive.

What kid said. It's like this, if you shoot him you will know he will not get any bigger.
They make ammo specifically for hunting for a reason!

That deer ts not legal if you are hunting in an AR county. If you have to guess then it's too close to call. You pull that trigger and then have to measure is 50/50 and not going to turn out good. Chances are, people telling you it's legal won't help pay your fine.
Thursday at 12:45 PM #33 Once i learned that i didn't "NEED" to kill something, and that if i did kill something all the fun stopped and work began, i was a much better hunter.
