Title: Garden Pests
Post by: Keta on August 31, 2013, 12:25:22 AM
I've been chasing 5 nice bucks out of our garden off and on but now the big one is with a doe and the others are not around.  Our youngest female barn cat thinks she's a lion.

I'd love to take care of that pest for you
Put his backstrap medallions next to some grilled Redfish and have us some surf-n-turf.  ;)

The fork horn will eat better and I don't like to kill the superior bucks.

I have a similar pest in my back yard Lee, but I live in a subdivision. Its a big Doe that comes up at night and licks all the bird seed out of the feeders.

Until last week he was the largest of 5 bucks that we had around, he's now with a doe and does not tolerate the other bucks.  He's in good shape and only 4 years old.

Nice rack on that bad boy, is it a ten point? This might change your mind :

That would be a nice large flat rate box, full of Penns ;)

Mine is much larger and has at least 6 points on each side.

Nothing a discreet broad head can't fix

The really tender ones have spots.  ;)  Or that's what I've been told.    Bob

They are. When I was in Alaska I helped the Alaska state Police with road killed deer, we donated the good parts to the Saxman Elder Home and a retirement home in  KTN.  I occasionally kept fawns for myself as payment for the 03:00 wake up calls to deal with them.
