Hi All, what do you think this buck will be? Would you be concerned about how skinny he is? How old do ya think? Thanks.
Looks to me like he'll end up being a nice basic 8(maybe a 9pt - looks like a sticker forming on the left) with about a 17 inch spread (+/- 3/4"), no idea how high those G2s could get though(anywhere 5-10 inch)...wouldn't worry about his weight - he looks to be a nice healthy young buck to me and they aren't gonna be putting on the end of fall/start of rut poundage yet.
I'm no expert but I'd guess he's a 2, maybe a 3 year old, more likely a 2 year old. He doesnt seem to be spread too far outside his ears and he has no sway in his back from what I can see characterizing him as a younger deer. Just a shot in the dark I'd guess he'd end up taping out in the low 100" to 110" range by fall. A lotta great potential there, congrats!
Hard to say what his rack will be. There's still a lot of growing season left Judging by his body & mass, I'd guess he's a nice 2 yo or a 3 yo.
