Very nice slick 8. Perhaps the most favored size of all.

This deer is likely about only 3 1/2 years old, definatly no older than 4 1/2.
Still had dainty feet, and decent dental work too.

outstanding looking deer!
How did you get the second photo of the buck to pose like that? Wait till he froze stiff? lol
Whatever you are willing to put up with, is exactly what you will have.
When your ship comes in. ... make sure you are willing to unload it.
PAYPAL, sucks and I will never use them again. I recommend you do the same.

It is also the day after since he was shot 10 minuites before dark, and the night time photos looked aweful, we hung him and tied his head to facilitate a good pose. Also might ad he doesnt have guts enough to try that again if you get what I mean.

I saw a few things proping up in the back but what puzzles me is how you got him to "look" to the left.
Most of my deer heads flop around.

A little larger in the body than those Texas bucks, eh?
