Between the front legs (it is quartering towards me/you),where the neck and body meet IMO.

'Inman,
Love the "wild" fence pics. Got any good closeups of a gate...because I always wanted to see one of them. Thanks!
Must be really "something" to have "all" that "Country" available to you? Congratulations?!?
Bless your heart.
Laughing!...............
That's a single strand hot wire to keep some beefs in. It wouldn't keep anything in except cows and maybe sheep. I've seen similar fences near Ketchikan, but for different purposes. Anyhow, here's what the rest of the country I play in looks like. All 100% available to me, and you too. Ain't much to look at, but the continuous pieces of public land around here are bigger than POW island (yes, I've been there, and know it is about 130 miles long x 45 miles wide), and other than the few pieces of private land and some occasional low fence allotment boundaries, it is unbound. I'd blow a kiss, but would rather not have some of the more uppity folks lurking here getting any ideas.

He's on private property, and in an unlimited archery only draw unit.
This area has the genetics, and certainly the nutrition (lots of alfalfa and other crop fields) to grow big antlers, but being this close to town, I think most get poached before they get too big as well. Around Paul? I used to get short range deer/elk tags there when a friend of mine ran the high desert farm.

He's between Acequia and Rupert...about 12-15 miles east of Paul. There's no short range weapon deer tag...archery only. I used to hunt it when it was a general archery tag, but not anymore.
