2nd this, I live in and hunt Nebraska and I guess our deer run a little fatter then most generally, my 1.5 year old fork/spike buck dressed out at right around 140-150 pounds this year, thought he was a fat doe until we go up to him dead and realized he had a rack....

I am a meat hunter and you cannot eat antlers, nor are older bigger bucks are tender and yummy tasting!!!!

That being said, in some southern states I wouldn't take a spiked buck or forked buck as the meat gained on those smaller deer not worth it until they chubby up.

If you only have a few days left or want to just fill your tag take the deer, if you have more time to put in afield and deer are not a rare sight where you live let it go.
