The property thatI hunt, it is at least a4 1/2yo regardless of what is on his head!!!! Thats the name of the game there, I knew it when I opted to lease the place and that is the way it will be, regardless if it is a 110" 4 1/2yo or a 140" 4 1/2yo.....They are both shooters on our place, I had a hard time last year passing a high 130's 3 1/2yo (would be the best deer I have shot to date) but in a couple years it will be worth letting him go.
If I was hunting a different place my standards would be different I am sure but I chose to hunt this place!!!
How do you tell a 3.5 year old from a 4.5 year old? That's a pretty tough distinction to make in the field under hunting conditions.
