Guys, i need your help!
 

Give me your thoughts on this buck, age-wise.

I have no past history with him.

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

2.5 yrs

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

Either a monster 2.5 or a nice 2.5

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

My guessestimate is 3.5. Outside chance 4.5, not likely but i'd guess 4.5 over 2.5 if they were the only two choices

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

understand I am use to GA deer, but from your photos and other guys from your area I have him at a solid 3 1/2

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

I've never seen a 2.5 yr old deer with that kind of body. If you showed me that deer with the headgear blurred or removed....I'd say 3.5. I still will. No back sway to him....but he's a deep bodied deer. I'll say 3.5.

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

I'm guessing 3 1/2. Too big of a body for a 2 1/2, not saggy enough belly for a 4 1/2. JMO.

2.5 year old

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

I gotta go with 3.5 as well.

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

What?:D Like saying she was fat or a little over weight[8D]

I think he's a fat 2.5 year old, I see very little dip in his back.

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

3 .5

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

3.5 was my initial thought

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

3.5

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

3.5 ... Can't wait to see him next year when he can focus on antler growth.

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

I'm going to go with 3.5.

I just shot one this past Sunday during theshotgun season with a similar bodyto that, but a smaller rack. I had him aged and he ended up coming out as a 3.5 yr old.

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

Tough one, looks to be a tweener...... He has characteristics of both 3.5 and 4.5, but based on where you roam, I'm gonna say 3.5. He does not have that race horse look of a 3.5, but his chest and butt don't look quite like a 4.5 either, although his neck does flow right into his chest..... yeah, 3.5.

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

when compared to my 2.5 from Sunday, he is a 3.5 no doubt. LOL

I could see him being an oversized 2.5....but more likely a 3.5 deer.

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

i am guessing a 3.5 yr old with not so great genetics

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

3.5.

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

I would say 2.5, but then again, I am not very good at this.[8D]

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

I have to agree with 125py, looks like some poor genetics.

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

he will go 3.5 all day long.

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

Same

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

4.5

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

His body is saying 3.5, that'd be my guess

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

I would say he is at least 3.5.

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

3.5

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

I'm saying a well fed 3.5 year old.

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

Id have to go with 3.5 as well nice sized deer The backs not swayed yet. He doesnt look very old in the face at all

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

3.5 old. body and antler base diameter are too big for a 2.5.

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

3.5 and he needs to go given the chance.

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

Either 2.5 or 3.5:D.

I disagree about the poor genetics. If given the chance he could be a 150" plus buck in a couple of seasons.

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

Me agree with this.

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

blocky looking 3.5

Tim

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

Mike, ill go out on a limb and say 3.5-4.5 He has the sag in his belly, and heavy chested, not much in sway back so most likely 3.5. I think 2.5 is out of the question IMO. I think he just got short changed a little on the head gear. Very nice though, ;)

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

I think he is either 2.5 or 3.5.

His neckdoesn't lookvery swollen to me which would be typical of a 2.5 yr old.

Young looking face too.

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

good 2.5 average 3.5, either way a good looking buck that needs the pass to next year and he has the potential to blow up into a beauty brow tine buck

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

I do believe he is a 3.5yo. He has the sag in the belly, but no back sway and the neck is a little small for a 4.5yo. He might never be a booner, but his bone will be bigger next year for sure. The one thing I know for certain, if you shoot him, his rack will not grow another inch.

RE: Guys, i need your help!
 

big browtines on that young deer...i say 3.5 years old, no younger 4 sure
