Base, I'm prolly not as learned as you on aging em, but my guess would be that the 8 pointer was just old/headed down hill (6.5 is an old deer in my book),,,, not injured.... good one, regardless...

Oh, and tell your wife "nice rack", for me.....******************************************* ************************************
