the deer in question , where about in allegheny co was it shot , anyone know?
Plus maybe the shinyness of the tag is reflecting grass to give it a greenish tint? possible!

Ok...
1. It is a PA buck.
2. It was shot within the city of Pittsburgh (not sure which district, wide area though), Allegheny county.
3. That is one awsome buck! Very symmetrical, gonna make a good looking mount.
------------
I've actually been in contact with the hunter's wife regarding some land that they are selling. The deer is legit. Cool stuff if you ask me.
LMAO.. Just about to post that.

I asked about the tag on another forum. It's tape over the tag to hold in place.
I assure you it's tagged legally.

Ok, PAhunter21
I'm not bustin' your rocks or anything but you said it was taken a few minutes from your house but you don't know what town or area in Allegheny. Seems odd. Are you brand new to the area?

the tag is in taht deers left ear , tucked in , u can see the twisty tie or whatever is holding it on in the pic , also i can see the different shade of white in your bucks ear... now that it is mentioned tape does seem like a good idea , ive had tags rip out while draggin deer in PA, kinda silly that it has to be in the ear , rack seems fine to me ......

The tape makes sense. Frankly, the rule saying you have to tag the ear seems pretty stupid. Best idea I've heard for that is to use a big safety type pin or one like on the license holder instead of cutting a hole big enough to put string or rope through. Gotta admit the last big Pa buck I shot went to the taxidermist with the tag on the rack. Game warden was there when I dropped it off and he didnt say a word about the tag. He definitely saw it cause he looked the rack over for quite awhile. Sometimes common sense prevails.

I have a pic of a buck I shot with bow this year in PA, in November 2004. It's an up close pic of the rack BUT it's too big to posts on here.. Anyone know how I can shrink it down to fit on the post?? It also has the upclose of half the tag.. it's a brownish metalic tag. NOT GREEN.
