Nice side view to show how square his body is which shows his age.

They don't allow spot lighting? They do in lots of big cities back east.
Nice buck!

Had five opportunities to kill this guy last year, each time I was somewhere else. Once, I was getting a young man his 1st deer. As we came out of the stand site with his deer my tacticam went off sending me the picture of him on my bait site 15 miles away. We were on a friends farm doing doe harvest. I chuckled, saying, no good deed goes unpunished!

Muddy, there is that old saying about permission and beggin for forgiveness... But Rflshootr's idea was good too!

or..."Honey, I found your deer dead.....It looks like lightning must have hit it."

or...Honey, I found your deer dead....I think someone else shot it and it ran and they never found it."

That's my story and I'm stickin' to it.

Unfortunately he is a backyard bucky which my wife has deemed off limits..,,,

Accidents happen!

Yes indeed. Shoot the buck when alone. Then transport it off the property. Wait till wife is home, drive into the yard smiling about your successful hunt far, far away.

"Oh! Was that the one that I wasn't supposed to shoot?"

Shoot and kill it first. Then drive into it ever so slowly so as not to damage meat or vehicle.

Technically not lying to say it was hit by a car. Wouldn't want all that meat to go to waste!!

I agree to some extent. Shoot him. Transported him off the property. Butcher him bring back the meat. Don't say anything about it. Never admit to anything.

BTW, Nice buck. Thanks for posting this. Thanks for the great pictures.

Nothing like some good game camera pics to get a guy ready for the hunt- even if they're not mine!

Thanks for posting this, Muddy!

Good luck! Looks like you have others there with his genes, so you may still get a chance at a dandy.
