This is a family argument so I'm leaving it to all of you for the final say.

Which "watch out for deer crossing" sign do you feel has the antlers for deer more correct?
A or B?
(These were taken about a mile apart on the same state highway...go figgur..)

I would have to say Deer B as all the deer I have seen their antlers point forward not backward. That is crazy that they are on the same highway and only a mile apart. have fun with the friendly argument lol

The rack on A looks backwards, and on B the rack is too skinny.

"None of the above" LOL Are these whitetail or mule deer?

Keep roll of those florescent red dots used for target shooting in your truck. When you see "Rudolf" put one of the dots on his missing nose. Yeah, it's vandalism I suppose, but little kids love it.

Neither. Sweep the tines forward on A and you would be closer. Neither looks good or right.

B because I have never seen deer antlers sweep toward the nose before.

Does it really matter?

I have hunted just about every where you can hunt in N. America, and have yet to see a sign that looks right when it comes to depicting antlers on a deer!

The question is, do you know what the sign means...??? :eek:

And does it get the message across!

Of course I have never hit a buck, but them darn does!

:D

PS, your poll is incomplete....there is no choice for "none of the above"
