Sounds like that deer volunteered for the dinner table.

Yeah what bothers me is he often has his daughter collect and deal with all the deer too. She loves it and is also a burgeoning taxidermist. So glad she wasn’t in there that day. At the end of the day you never can predict for sure what a semi-wild or wild animal is going to do. Like my buddy who is really good friends with the guy says, “that’s why we kill deer not have them as pets….” ….yep.

Hows he get it to pee where he wants?

Maybe the buck was feeling either overstimulated or neglected?

I am. Not 100% sure but they collect with stainless steel buckets after a lfeeding and watering session. They can pretty much tell by having and observing the animals so much and for so long. Nothing is 100% and his operation isn’t anything sophisticated but his stuff is pretty much from the deer(s) direct to the consumer.
 
Pulled some Cuddelinks in for winter maintenance, these two pics good example of a 3 year old buck vs a mature buck. I suspect the big one pushed several other bucks off the property this year.

I got a reinforcement of a valuable lesson last night: you can’t kill a giant if you shoot a nice one.

Last year I had planned on hunting the big woods and camping out of my truck at the end of October. I shot a nice buck two weeks prior to that so I canceled my camping trip. l mentioned yesterday that on my shed hunt I grabbed a camera, I get home and check it and sure enough, giant walks by the day I would have been there. Does that mean it was in the bag? Of course not, but the lesson is stinging a little today. video is easier to see all those points, but I count at least 13, split brows, kickers on g2s. Enough to get me pumped for next year!
