I have the strong suspicion my cousins and friends would take it the first chance given

I would shoot it fo sho. But you can bet your arse just because you or your dad passes on it, your other family and friends won't. And I know this from experience

CHOOT HIM!!!

He looks a little young.

If it were just me I'd pass, but since there are others on the land who might not think the same, choot it.

Blast it.

Choot

He's a big 3.5 year old. But he'll be an even bigger 5.5 yo with aome patience.


That said, I'd bust his arse on my place

Good deer regardless

Pass..Your dad has much patience...very admirable..
How special would it be for him to shoot it in 2 years after waiting.

You're cheating with that stealth cam sir....

In Louisiana its hard to pass up a deer like this...if you can convince your family not to shoot it, it would be worth an extra year or two but since this is LA and any redneck/coonass would take any chance in hell to take this deer then I would take it the first chance i got....if this was Illinois then that would be a different story

That is a young deer. Too many people in LA shoot anything with horns. If you want good deer, let that one walk for a few more years.

And one of the reasons they have deer like this is because they let them get old enough to have passed on the genes enough and THEN take it

All very good points guys
