Took this Coues white tail in New Mexico's Gila Wilderness last weekend. I knew they were small deer, but they're littler than I was expecting (he’s a mature 4 ½ or 5 ½ year old buck but probably weighed 100 pounds or so live weight...I don’t think the pack animals even noticed that we added him to their load, and he fit in the panniers in halves instead of quarters).

No Boone & Crockett record setter, but 7 points with very palmated main beams, a tattered ear, and several battle scars on his face. All that character and the gray coat should make for a good mount.
