AR restriction question

[AntlerCollector]

not to sound like a moron and will gladly accept any hazing (no snowflake here lol) what does MLD mean?

It's a great question by the way.

Is there any work around for the antler restrictions? I’ve had one buck showing up for a couple years now with a full rack on one side and a split spike on the other. Don’t really want him out breeding again this year and was wondering if there is sometime I could do.

Year before last I had the same question in my mind. Same antler configuration, four on one side, goofy looking fork on the other. Sent a pic to the warden and he said no. Obviously a mature buck, five or older.

Good to know, he’s a big bodied old buck. If one side matched the other he would easily be 20” wide and a 12 but such is luck I guess

If he had a full rack he would be a nice deer but his left side has been a spike with almost a 3 inch split every year so far

Sorry, I mistook Black Ice’s pics for your deer. It sucks for sure, I hunt in a AR county also and have a 4yo that is wide on the right and his left barely curves at all leaving him in that maybe range. Too close for me to shoot him.

If it has a full rack on one side and a split spike on the other, I doubt that is from genetics but from some kind of injury.

Apparently if you shoot an undersized deer the warden cuts the deers head off and takes it! Gives your kid a shed antler and let’s you keep the meat lol ! Funny how the law is sometimes lol !

Well if he had a full rack, he would probably be dead two years ago. Just enjoy being able to watch a mature deer and seeing what a deer can do in the area with age (his good side).
