possible shooter and first hard horn

[BDAHMS]

He isn't the largest deer I have- but he is getting close to bei

ng a shooter in my book!

and the other deer appears to be velvet free??

A couple of side view pics of his body would be good. He doesn't look very old from the front.
They are starting to shed the velvet now! I had one in a picture just a few days ago.

These are the only two I have of him so far- but I agree he isn't too old- maybe 3?

only issue is this is the only piece of land that has hunters on all 4 sides and they seem to be if its brown its down kind of people-

my other properties I hunt he would be passed on in a heart beat because no one else hunts around them and I know they wont be (unless poached) hunted

If YOU are happy with him, take him. But don't shoot him just because somebody else MIGHT. He's made it this long, he might be able to make it another year or more.

I will not be the one shooting him- I will be taking my father bow hunting for his first time on this property and would love for this deer to be his first-

I am holding out on 2 or 3 big deer I have on camera down in southern Iowa that I passed up last year that made me sick to my stomach to do

I am going down to check the cameras (for the first time in 7 weeks) and if I get them on there I will post them on here and see what you think about score
