Age??

Im thinking 2 1/2

He's going to get the pass this year but still would like some of your opinions.

 

Dont care, id be shooting.

 

If this was public land I'd kill him in a heart beat but this is a lease we just got on and were really going to try to manage it and grow some big deer.

 

Well in that case i would say hes a 3.5

 

yeah I'd say 2.5 .. he's has great potential. Can't shoot bigguns if ya don't let em grow. Pretty Deer tho

 

2.5 i dont think hes a 3.5, not enough drop in the belly..

 

How much land is the lease?

And why is there a fence around the feeder? To keep the deer out?

 

same here

 

I would assume Hogs.

 

Agreed

 

I have 1.5 yo's round here bout like that..

 

Yes. Deer won't hang around a feeder with hogs on it.

 

3000 acres with about 2300 of it being pasture.

 

The fence is for keeping the hogs out

 

Nice Deer. Are there bigger bucks in the Area?

 

Yes but they don't hang around feeders much especially during daylight. This is actually a good buck for my area and to be that young is very encouraging. I have another 8 on camera that I know is 2 1/2 so I'm excited about the next 2 years and to see what these bucks will become. Come 2 or 3 weeks we will start to awesome more bucks with the rut coming in.

 

Thanks for rubbing it in...

Our 1 1/2s are forks and little 6's. I got 4-5 different 1 1/2 bucks around the same feeder that this one was at.

 

Yes, he looks to be 2 1/2 years old. I wouldn't shoot him because I've killed bigger, but if he's a good one for your area take him my friend!

 

Definite shooter and I say 3.5

 

Yeah he's a 2.5 year old imo
