    on a side note his body stance and slightly belly hang indicates he is a likely a 4 or possibly 5 year old anyway from what i know about raising them in that area under high fence

    Just my opinion and everyone has one.
    Never been able to boil the horns soft enough to eat. Does do need thinned out

    my place aint got enough does to thin out is the problem . I only had one on the place when I bought it . I am up now though to around a half dozen and hope to grow that number some so we have some deer to harvest .
    there was up to 15 bucks a week visiting the feeders and one lone doe for months and months when I bought the place .
    stay tuned though , my wife is saying we don't need to harvest any of them ….

    A nice buck for sure, I like to eat doe meat! Wild hog is good also.

    Wild hog is exceptional and plentiful most places

    I will whack some hogs no doubt and might or might not actually kill a deer this year .
    my wife and I don't consume enough meat in a year to really warrant me killing many of them and to be sure I give away a bunch of what I harvest already .
    but that all said a nice rack that's a solid legal buck is a hard thing to pass on

    What part of Texas are you in that 130 is a big buck? I know it is different in different parts of Texas.

    around the midwestern part , kinda near Comanche , I have hunted the area for many moons and to be sure you see a 130 to 135 inch buck you likely saw about the best one around the immediate area .
    once in a blue moon you here or see one bigger but it is a pretty rare event best I can tell ya .
    The area is known for high numbers of deer though .
    my best out there in 20 years is a 143 and my next best is a 139 and I have spent countless hours playing with them deer
