I surprised a six pointer while walking up our driveway - when he started dipping his head and pawing the ground I knew it was time to back off.

I shot a 3x3 one year. He had a few abscesses in his rump from a well placed antler stab.

The does all around us are wont to start stomping their front legs when you get nearby. If you yell at them, they take off. They are a lot less prone to taking off when the babies arrive. Mama dropped this baby on our property three years ago (June 16, 2018). She was off foraging during the day and she didn't hide this one very well.

We are overrun by these critters, so there are few plants I can grow in the garden unless I put down deer spray every week or so.
