    Try uploading it to Photobucket and using their IMG code to display it in here. Or e-mail it to [email protected] and I'll post it for you.

    We found a big mature buck dead, hit by a car, about two weeks ago. He was coming out of our hunting spot and headed across the highway when he got hit. By the time we got to him the next morning someone chopped his skull plate off already. :cry:

    I haven't picked up a lot of deer, but my family has picked up two freshly hit deer, and there is still a lot of salvageable meat. Just my opinion.
