    [​IMG] Another buck on my hit list, he has a nice body and I figure him at 3 and half. Any thoughts on his age? Scoot

    Holy wingspan!!! He super wide! Great buck. I think you may be right about the age. I'd guess the same.

    That's a great buck! Judging on how his neck almost blends in with his chest, he may be a 4 1/2.

    I agree with GregH, I'd say he a 4 1/2 yr old. Nice buck for sure!

    Ahhhh glad to see my favorite deer is back, that's your wide 8 that you got pics of 2 years ago, at that time he was about 19/20" wide, now he's looking about 21/22" and we figured he was a 4-1/2yo then because you were getting pics of him on a regular basis. Last year you only got 1 pic of him all year and this year you've gotten 2 pics so far, but still only night pics which makes me think he's a 6-1/2yo. He has never had a rack that was worth a dang, wide but short tines and his G3's have always been his longest tines, body size he's a great deer would be a good cull deer. I'll see if I can find the pics of him from 2 years ago?
