Well not really, it's the size of the Tarsel Gland IMO that makes this deer a buck

I'm trying to learn something here.

The doe in my photo is a yearling (probably) and won't go 100#'s soaking wet (more like 80).

I can check for larger doe photos.....but she's more the "norm" than the exception, here.

Are you saying that deer in the Ridgefactor referenced photo IS a buck.....based solely on the tarsal gland size? I'm just curious. The deer in the original photo looks to be a youngin, also. I have no idea, actually.

OK that is cool, Like I said IMO bucks have a larger tarsel gland, being they are bigger in body size.

Then maybe that's just a big doe?
