Our big boy was back the other day.
.

.
He’s the son of the truly impressive 14 point buck that lived here for many years.
.

.
Junior has a weird antler pattern this year and is standing at 9.
.

.
Though the fact he still even has his rack in early March is bizarre.
.

.
He currently leads a harem of 7 does and 5 youngsters. Big boy has been busy.
.
How long does he get to survive? Not long enough!

You’d be surprised. All of our neighbors prohibit hunting so this is a safe zone. We have multiple herds up and down our road.

Hunting is definitely an issue and I despise that time of year. But a white tail’s home territory is one square mile so we’ve been lucky.

Please tell me you’re joking.

What kind of joke are you seeing? Around here most of the big bucks are hunted down, from airplanes, by merciless American hunters who pay big bucks to our asshole government for the pleasure of killing our wildlife. If I could I would shoot them first.

Many times, when I take you seriously, you tell me you are joking. I think I can ask you that question any time I like.

It’s hard to tell from the pics, but one side only has 3 points. He’s lopsided.

He’s lovely and his eyes are beautiful. It’s as if he’s just on the edge of being a man, but has some last bits of puppy fat on his face before he matures.
