So my mother in law took pics of a nice buck but he looks young. Very unique rack on him that is for sure.

You are hesitant to shoot a tasty young buck with cool antlers?
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

If you must, pop that window open, lasso his ass and tie him off to the stove. then give it a couple years.

There is the rub....  Even if you had hundreds of acres, there is no guarantee he will be around next year though.

Nice deer.

If he actually comes into the house you may have no choice- self-defense.
