Congrats on the buck and taking a youth on a hunt with you, even if it wasn't the best circumstance at the beginning, you stuck with it. I'm in Tioga County NY near Newark Valley and the deer here are small as well. This bow season I have seen a nice 8 and 6 pointer, one 7 pointer and a moster 10 that had me trembling. By looking at the deer, I also agree that it's a 1.5 year old deer, but the teeth will help you in your age classification. I have not had the chance to shot a buck that was 8 points or bigger, nor have I ever shot a buck since I just started hunting the last 2 years, going on my third this year. Plenty of opportunities for 4 through 7, but passed hoping for a chance of a bigger and plus I like to think I practice QDM, but sometimes at the moment of truth, if I saw that 11 pointer, I would have made the shot as well. Could the buck you shot have been bigger next year or following, well the teeth will hopfully tell you, but for now, what a nice unique buck you have to be proud of and having the expirence shared with a youth is also very rewarding. Again, congrats!
