It sounds to me like you are referring to a young deer. If it were me, I'd give him a chance to get a few more years on him. You would be really surprised what just one year's difference can make on the set of antlers a buck sports.

If you are after the meat and there are does available, then I'd take one of those.

By the way, what part of Elmore are you in? My parents live in Tallassee and I hunt in Reeltown (Tallapoosa).
