Cool Happy Thanksgiving from Ohio. "Look at the RACK on that!"

For those of you that don't know, my backyard is a Nature Preserve. I only shoot deer with my camera, to keep out of jail! Thick rack like I've never seen before...

Happy Thanksgiving and good luck to the Hunters among us.

Beautiful buck; thanks for posting the photos, rags.

I'm always intrigued by their ability to move through dense woodland without getting their antlers tangled up in the brush.

Funny! Sometimes when I let the dogs out, they'll run to the fence. Not always. When they do, the deer take off quick and "run" through the thick brush/ trees and I just wait for 'em to get clotheslined and they never do! Amazing...

Well, you'll just have to help me this year!! I usually walk in late February after a good snow melt. I hear they don't last long because other critters eat on 'em and they tear them up. There ought to be a boatload every year. This guy just has some very unique thick ones. I have pictures of some racks that are allot bigger! Some 12 points. They aren't as thick as this 'ole boys though!
