Here’s my first deer 5 yrs ago. Rookie deer hunter at 60 yrs old. It was legal, but that’s about the only thing you can say about him. Most notable thing for us was, the burger was delicious (with pork fat added).
I got the two above mounted because I doubt I’ll ever get one bigger. We don’t have a lot of control on our 62 acres. We, and the neighbors are getting more selective. There’s still some bigger bucks out there.

9 yr old pond, 1 ac, 15' deep.
RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (going away), SMB, and HSB (only one seen in 5 yrs) Restocked HSB (2020) Have seen one of these.
I think that's about all I should put in my little pond.
