What are you useing to hunt with,bow or gun?

to tell if it is a trophy,it is like a buck deer. you have to look at size and shape of the body.the front end should be thick and large,wide thick shoulders.the hair on top of back,long and standing high.look for the curled up lip,to see if he has tush.

you learn what to look for with each trip out.
Good luck.

where are you going hunting??

remember keep your back to the sun, your knife sharp, and your powder dry.
