Great BT!  I love the curvature of his......... ummm oh yea horns! 
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

This is by FAR the longest spike blacktail I've seen.  Nice job.  If P&Y had a category for spikes, he'd be way up there in the books!

Backyard buck.. ;)
To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.

Trophy quality is in the eye of the tag-holder.  Please keep your comments respectful.  They took a legal deer in a legal method.  That should be good enough for us as sportsman to support.  The in-fighting amongst ourselves is going to be the death of our sport.  Take the morale High-Road, to quote Keith Warren.

looks to me like a 2 year old deer, i doubt any older but i think id have a better chance getting a 4point than ever shooting a spike that big. id be proud, its alota bigger than the spike i shot this year

I keep coming back and looking at that spike, and it is so cool!  You should really consider a Euro mount, as a DIY thing.  It would look great up on the mantle.
