Looks 2.5 to me. Not a bad deer though. It is a shame when they get taken out by vehicles.

That deer must have been at Fort Washington State park. The genetics down the are all six pointers. Saw 1 last year I think deer hunter got some video of that was an awesome six bigger than most eights. No hunting, bad genetics. I went out last night and saw the first nice buck of the year. Nice eight point, no monster, but a solid respectable buck. He was fifty yards out with many branches inbetween us. Heard him way before I saw him. Watched him for two minutes and he started walking away. Hit the grunt call twice he turned and headed toward me. BUCK FEVER set in but he circled down wind instead and disappeared. Still awesome in my book. He wasn't chasing, no nose to the ground, in no hurry, but out during daylight hours. It should BUST open in the next few days. As soon as one doe goes in estrous the woods are going to be on FIRE!

Hardcore, you KNEW where he was...
Bartman. Glad to say he's still alive. Rode around a park near my work & took pics. Could be 2.5. Never know for sure, but I could see that.

Gilroy road is near Doncaster Dem. For. I have 30 acres of private property that backs up to the swamp right there on Gilroy. Her property does back up to a farm and a little bit of Doncaster. It is a nice piece of property to hunt!
