    How old would you say this buck is ?

    He lives in an area rich with acorns, natural foliage, corn feeders and 700 acres of corn and beans.

    I'm gonna say that's a 3 1/2 year old. He's lacking mass but has too much size to be any younger imo.

    I would say 3.5 too. He is starting to fill out the belly, hindquarters are gaining definition, but is still real thin in the chest...good deer though, and will be great if given time.

    nice rack, but i wouldn't put him a day over 2.5. especially considering the food he has available.
