Firstly, I'm a little embarrassed to show this comapred to Mike's pic, but this is where I'm at. [&o]Secondly, this pic was taken 2 months ago, because my cameras are over 200 miles away, so I'm always looking at old pics. Hopefully, this guy has grown even more with 2 more months. He's comes by my stand daily, so I have a great shot at him.

However, I'm terrible at scoring deer, so will someone even give me a ballpark? The good news is I had my buddy call me a couple of days ago and offered to let me hunt his farm and he said I would have an awesome opportunity to nail a 130 class deer. It's possible that he has a few bigger than 130, but there are several 130's running around.

My real question is will this deer in the current picture ever have a chance of getting to 130 with another 2 months (Remember this was taken early July)? Lastly, what would you age the deer at? Thanks guys.

I think he will go 130...looks like a really nice buck, probably a 3 year old...

Good luck with him!

I think by now he'll be pushing 130, looks like a nice 2 1/2 year old

Thanks for the encouraging words!! We can bow hunt all the way up to January 15th for a buck this year, so I may hold off for something bigger.

Jumpum and Dumpum
I see he logged in this morning but despite the PM's and emails he didn't sign in. I'll be replacing him tomorrow evening.
