I'm so ticked off you haven't shot this deer. Do not pass up on the opportunity to drill this deer at first sight.
IN other news...the axis does in pic #2 looks like she has a whitetail face. Weird.

I'll play
5 yrs old- he doesn't look down hill to me
36-37 inch beams
37-38 wide (I feel real good about this as most mature axis are 5"s between their eyes when facing ahead. By taking a measurement of his between the eyes and comparing with this spread I hit 37-38.
That same measurement also gives him 10 and 8 on his cottles.
NO DOUBT I"S SHOOT HIM.
What's with the pipe fence with one rail ?? horses ?

What's with the pipe fence with one rail ?? horses ? Thanks Buck, the previous owners had cows and built those to keep them out. It has kept the oryx out for the most part so we dotn mind them being there.

Holey Moley, that's how long he is and he's OMG wide. His mass is Oh Hell Yea and his brows are shoot,shoot,shoot. This is my technical evaluation of your buck.
All jokes aside, kill him before a buck half his size slides a horn under his ribs and makes him coyote food. Beautiful animal. Baker
