Great buck, kind of looks like some swelling on left side of face, like maybe he has an abscess.  Seen that a few times in the wt here.

I thought so too, but wondered if it was just extra fat and the way he was cranking his neck.   I had one a couple years ago that was obviously something wrong

Looks like the swelling goes up into the eye area, might be a bad tooth or maybe he took a head shot from one of his buddies.    :dunno:

Old mature muley.  His hind quarters seem to be thin. Maybe just the angle.

No debate that one would get smoked if I saw him with a permit in my pocket.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Every father should remember that one day his children will follow his example instead of his advice.

That’s crazy to not see an older buck in an area before. Sneaky
