A comment was made about a deer with 'only' 4 points in another thread. I gather this has to do with the ongoing contests, but i don't know. At any rate, i thought i would mention, in my opinion, most trophy mule deer are 4 points. In all the years i have been spending time afield, the widest, tallest, and thickest mule deer antlers were mostly 4 points.







This 4 point just noticed wife and i in the garden.







This 4 point seems to have a fifth point on the one side.














This 4 point with the fifth point on one side during daylight.








Somehow in the past 4 year or so a 3 point has begun showing up around our place. I think this picture is not the big one, but it is the best we have right now. I was taken by this beauty when he was in velvet, but never was able to photograph him. Now all we have is photo of him facing away. To me, this is as good as it gets when it comes to mule deer, a rare 3 point trophy class buck.
