About this whitetail buck and crossed axes shield
Few emblems say rural county like a whitetail buck. This shield pairs the deer with crossed axes, a nod to timber country and hard work, and frames both with oak leaves. Kept to green, tan and brown, it looks at home on a deputy's sleeve in the woods and doesn't shout the way bright patches do.
Order it as shown or customize it: put your office name, year and motto in the lettering fields, redraw the buck as an elk or mule deer, or swap the oak leaves for your county's tree. This page shows a design concept we manufacture to order — your stitch-ready proof arrives 6–12 hours after you order, and nothing is produced until you approve it.

Whitetail buck sheriff patch questions
Can the whitetail be swapped for an elk or mule deer?
Yes. Any game animal redraws into the same pose at no art charge, and the proof shows it with the axes and leaves around it.
Can we change the motto?
Yes. The motto and every other field — office name, sheriff's office line and year — restitch to your wording on the 4-hour mockup.
Will the antlers hold detail at sleeve size?
At 4 inches or taller, yes. Smaller patches get slightly simplified antlers on the proof so the stitching stays clean.
Can this be made in navy for a navy uniform?
Yes. A navy-and-gold version works well; preview it in the markup tool before you request a quote.
How do I request changes to the shield?
Use the markup tool in the quote form to circle the buck, axes or leaves, pin numbered notes and switch colorways. The marked-up shield attaches to your quote.
Want a different sheriff design, or a broader view?
This whitetail shield is one rural design among many. The sheriff designs beyond this whitetail-and-oak-leaf shield cover stars, K9, mounted and marine units. Weighing embroidered against woven or PVC, or starting from your office's old patch? The patch buying guide that prices an earth-tone whitetail shield by quantity explains each choice.
