I was letting my dog out Saturday and I saw this little fella hanging out in my back yard. I ran in the house to get my camera. When I came back outside I had to crawl around the pond so I could get close enoughto get his picture. Two bee stings and 15 minutes later I was within 12 yds. ( If only it was bow season, the pic would hopefully have me in it.) Man I can't wait for bowseason. He's the biggest buck I have ever seen in velvet. He may be the biggest buck I have seen period. I'm guessing he is around a 150 class deer. The weird thing is he isn't a very big bodied deer. I'm thinking he may still be young, but what a RACK. Tell me what you all think. Oh I live in Northeast Ohio.

WHAT A BUCK!!! Good luck on him this fall!

He's a bruiser isn't he?

You're not kidding...what a trophy! I hope you get him.

I'm surprised he don't have any spots! Poor little ole thing....[8D][&:]

Good googa mooga. Nice pic. hope you get that bad boy.

i saw the color at first and i was like, oh thats a nice little bull elk then i was like whoa. and hes in your backyard? well with the price of gas this year you wont have to spend nothin going to your huntin land. get a cup of coffee,a newspaper,a croisant and a bow and sit on the back porch and be back in bed before the birds wake up. nice buck and good luck on him.

Nice buck and cool that you got a pic!!HCH

That pics about 35 yards from my floor to ceiling bedroom window. You think my wife would be upset when woke up to the sound of an arrow being released? I figure she won't stay mad forever.

I should add that's the first deer my dog didn't want anything to do with.
