This is the second year I  have seen this buck. Last year he broke one side of his rack in October. He is a huge body deer- look at the width betwen his shoulders and brisket. I am not sure what he would wiegh, but I am betting it would be a lot.

Oh, I think you are looking at a pretty mature deer here.  The big blocky shoulders and body with the big Roman nose represent a mature deer.  I bet this buck is 4 1/2 yrs old or more and is either on his way down in horn size or just didn't have the great genetics to start.  Great buck to take!!

It's a calling to something greater. And that transforms the places that we stand into something more than a cropfield or a pasture or a mountain. It makes that place Hallowed Ground."

have you seen a long snout on a fawn? its not backwards, he was insinuating that this "old" deer had a short snout, and not a long one, which you would think that it would have

I sure hope the critters can catch a break this winter "not like last year". Because the G&F sure isn't going to cut the tags in 1/2 like they should have done in some areas.
Things are looking pretty bad in these parts, I'd say # are at about 70% less than they were at the same time last year...not good.
older buck by the way

this is a 4 1/2 year old deer.
short snout (roman nose) = old buck
this is not a short snout, it just looks like it becuase of the roman nose and size of the deer. 
bubble head = young deer

If the deer is handicapped like this one could a person use a crossbow?

That's sad, but funny... 
it's head looks too small for his body.  looks like a big body buck to me...

Snout looks short because of the thick shoulder and neck. Kinda like how some canadian 150-160 racks look small compared to the big bodies.
