    How old is this buck? **updated**

    Just another. I'll post the one with antlers in a while. I'm curious to know what people think without seeing the antlers............;):D

    Also, I'll have pics posted up soon from my mock scrape setup. Interesting results to say the least.

    He was born on May 2nd, 2006. His likes are does in estrous and standing corn, his dislikes are threads posted by RJ asking people to guess his age w/o showing his assets. lol

    PA/NY....3.5 wouldn't surprise me. If he has been getting good food, he's 2.5. I am looking forward the mock scrape pics.

    I'm not 100%, but I'm pretty sure this buck is a healthy and very big 2.5. He could be a smallish 3.5, but I wouldn't bet on it. Not sure if he has brow tines or not, but I'm guessing he's right around 100". He's almost identical to the buck I shot in 2007, maybe a couple inches bigger, but definitely the same gene pool.............
