If given the chance he could be a 150" plus buck in a couple of seasons.
No way. Even in thebest areas genetic-wise,many or most bucks simply will not make a 150 rack no matterhow old you let themget.

I just shot one in NWMO that Iknow is at least 4.5 that grossed 147 andhe was simply gonna never be bigger than that score wise. Six and 5.75inch bases, 200+ dressed (196after hanging 5 days). I have seenstatistics onthe number of maturebucks thatmake 150, andit islow.

I have to disagree with the both of you. Coug, I don't think this deer will ever be close to 150" If he looks like that at 3 1/2 he's not going to get much bigger.

Robin, I have to disagree with you as well. In great genetics areas I have seen 3 1/2 yr. old bucks over 150". Matter of fact I have a 3 1/2 on my wall that scores 151 3/8". I kick myself sometimes for shooting him.

I am not saying a 3.5 can't be 150, I am saying that not every buck can make 150, no matter how old you let them go.
