RE: How old are these deer?

BAsed on where I live, 2.5 yrs. Not sure where pic was taken. Thin body, a September Buck should be getting pretty fat. Rack will very nice is a little light on the mass side of the spectrum.

When they hit hard rack it is safe to assume the additional half year.

Normally the fawns hit the ground April-May normally that is. On occassion the doe may drop as early as late March. That's not a norm. If you were able to see a fresh fawn just after birth, count back 160 days and you'll know when the doe was bred.
