I'm guessing its private land. If it is, i'd definite let em go no question about it with out a doubt. He's got alot of room to grow. only about 2.5 years old. Remember the magic of the rut. bucks will travel farther. you might have a bigger one come in. plus i'd rather let him grow another 2 years and take him when he becomes a monster. he's got ggood mass and length already.

The question I have for you is do you have anything bigger on the wall? If not then I would say he is a good buck to start out with. If you have some racks on the wall then let him go and grow a couple more years. I have 1.5 year old deer with antlers bigger then that but his body looks like a 2.5 year old. It is up to you when you see him.
