I found a buck last year at the beggining of November that looked to be a 2.5 yr old that had been skull capped. It had been shot right behind the shoulder so It couldnt have possibly went far from where it had been shot, so I hope that it was left to waste just because it wasn't "big enough" and they didn't want to waste their tag. But I always finds deer next to the train tracks by our house that have been hit, never see big bucks hit though.
