Default RE: Oldest deer ever harvested??

One of the oldest deer I have ever seen was at the check station about 4 years ago. The buck was almost completely gray, seemed like he had no brown in him at all anymore. He had broken legs and ribs and youcould see where they had grown back years ago because they would be sticking out of his body in weird ways. The guy who killed him said he was barely walking and limping. His rack was all broken up and gnarly looking, but we didn't stick around to hear how old they aged him. I wouldn't have trusted what they said anyways- seemed like every deer you took in there was "2-2.5"
