Good thing he didn't walk under atlas's stand when he just had nubbins on his head or he would have never gotten to this size. LOL
hehe

You can look but just dont touch right atlas!!Deer are becoming more and more prevelent in neighborhoods as suburbs expand, too bad its illegal foratlas to shoot deer in his yard but Im sure even if he could legally harvest one in his yard, he would rather shoot pictures instead of shooting arrows at him I would bet, not that theres anything wrong with that.

BTW ---- Grats on your spike buck atlas. I saw your entry in the contest just now. Hey 30 plus inchesfrom a spike is impressive, every little bit helps I suppose if yourea team player because its better than 0 points.

Think he'd let you walk up to your 20-yard stake and keep standing beside that target?
Yes.

I have had them stand close to my bag target and not move when I was shooting practice. I stood within 10 yards of this one and another 1/2 racked 8 (broken) this year as they pushed each other around my yard.......it was really cool......they were not fighting but the antlers were clicking and scraping even though it was more playful then anything.
