On my phone he looks like a huge crotch horn, can’t make out a brow tine. If so that wouldn’t be a legal buck here which is crazy to me.
The bow shop in town has a certified P&Y 6pt.

Shot one similar ten years or so ago, should have been a decent eight if he was symmetrical. The shot was only about 40 yards but I had to pick an opening and wait on him, he was crossing from my left to right and I never noticed his left side. As I approached him I noticed his head was laying flat exactly like in your picture, had me wondering “what the heck” at first. Still would have shot him even if I’d noticed beforehand.

Nice buck dewman! Congrats!

Thanks for posting that.
Just saw a trail cam pic of yet another small buck at 6:30 this morning. Deer are sure moving. If they weren't there was a pretty fox that came through I would have been tempted to take. IMG_2678.jpgLast edited by dewman; 12-28-2021, 08:33 PM.

All I saw was a spike buck with long tines. He fed across the food plot, in easy bow shot distance. Our club minimum is 4 points total for members, 6 points for guests - eastern style of counting antler points.
I didn't mind the box blind yesterday because of occasional showers. Was planning to make a shot through both shoulders if the right deer came along. The undergrowth is thick in that part of the property and the plan was to minimize tracking

Wanna hear sump'in weird?
The one antlered buck I have .... is missing his "LEFT" antler!
Is that a 🤯 or simply a 🤔?
fitch270, breaking an antler AIN'T easy! LOL!
I broke a set of spikes off a deer I had killed. I was surprised at the effort required to break even a spindly spike! ....and that was a 🤯!

Continuing the one horn theme. Youth season 2006. Both daughters shot one horned deer. One left side broken off, one right side broken. We refer to them as the "Twix" bucks. If you seen the commercials you get it. IMG_2683.jpg

Years ago I shot a 5-1/2 year old buck at the end of the season. He was thin and worn out from the rut and both antlers fell off when I started to drag him. The meat wasn't fit to eat when I got it back from the processor. I think that was a very sick buck.
