Shooter. Probably depends on your own goals, age 3/12-4 at best, score 135-40ish I would say, if you want monsters on your land he needs another year

3 1/2 to 4 1/2. 140's.

He's a shooter around here. He will probably develop more mass and possibly, better tine length. I'd guess he'd max out in the 150's.

He actully looks a little young. 2, or three. Very nice deer, I would take him.. If you want giants tho you might wanna let him walk for another year. But somebody else may get him before then.

3 1/2 and upper 130's

Don't know where you're hunting,but if it's in the midwest,I'd definately say that is a 2 1/2 - 3 1/2 year old buck. Long sweeping neck,and not to stout through the chest. He'll probably be a sure enough pig next year......He looks like 138 right now.

bornhunter04 09-22-2008 04:29 PM

RE: How old is this Buck & Score??
 
easily a 3 1/2 year old, i would put him 140-150, depends on how good his mass is. Let him go if you think he'll make it.

BucknCluck 09-22-2008 07:06 PM

RE: How old is this Buck & Score??
 
I think the close up pic is fooloing some. 8 point buck , looks like the main beams are on the shorter side. Id say 125 inch 3 year old. Nice buck , shoot him if you want him , its not up to us.

RE: How old is this Buck & Score??
 
Thanks for the feedback. A lot of you wanted to know where I hunted. I hunt in South Central Michigan near Jackson. Again thanks for your feedback I agree with most of your scoring. With regards to the deer being a shooter. I guess it all comes down to ones oppurtunities, past success, and personal goals. Thanks.

TAMBO.

RE: How old is this Buck & Score??
 
Looks like a 3.5 year old 130-135"er. And I know i wouldn't hesitate if he walked by me, good luck getting him if he's a shooter in your book.

excalibur43 09-24-2008 08:28 AM

RE: How old is this Buck & Score??
 
Low to mid 130's.He looks to be 3 1/2.He needs another year.

WIbuckchaser 09-24-2008 11:25 AM

RE: How old is this Buck & Score??
 
3.5 130-140+- I'd shoot him.

PAHUNTERR21 09-24-2008 11:30 AM

RE: How old is this Buck & Score??

zrexpilot 09-24-2008 06:31 PM

RE: How old is this Buck & Score??
 
4 1/2 year old easy. sagging belly, fatty brisket.
you guys are way off on the 2 1/2
if your deer look like that at 2 1/2 I want to hunt there.

timbercruiser 09-24-2008 06:42 PM

RE: How old is this Buck & Score??
 
3 1/2 to 4 1/2 high 120's, bust him.

gregrn43 09-24-2008 07:21 PM

RE: How old is this Buck & Score??
 
He looks like a 3 1/2 year old in the high 120's or low 130's

PAHUNTERR21 09-24-2008 09:35 PM

RE: How old is this Buck & Score??
 
These scores seem so high to me this buck is no where close to 140-150. I have a 133 hanging right next to me and im certain its bigger in every way. But i wouldnt pass him up.

wisbowhunter2009 09-24-2008 09:40 PM

RE: How old is this Buck & Score??
 
3 1/2 and about 128ish.. yes i'd take it

NJ Camo Man 09-24-2008 09:58 PM

RE: How old is this Buck & Score??
 
I couldn't pass on him. Let us know what happens this season.

snedd162 09-28-2008 06:38 PM

RE: How old is this Buck & Score??

turkeyslayer15 09-29-2008 10:57 AM

lucky_shot 09-29-2008 04:40 PM

RE: How old is this Buck & Score??
 
does it really matter? that would be a dead deer!

The Outdoorsman 09-30-2008 09:10 AM

RE: How old is this Buck & Score??
 
He's a shooter, and im guessing mid 130 range.But like it was said before, it depends on your own personal goal(s).

MI TAMBO 09-30-2008 09:40 AM

UPDATED PICTURE OF HIM.

Hard to see the rack, but we think its the same buck.



roadrkt 10-01-2008 03:24 PM

RE: How old is this Buck & Score??
 
I would consider that a trophy and shoot him. He looks mature enough and spread outside ears, nice mass. But each hunter has his/her own idea of what constitutes a trophy. If you think it is worthy of mounting, then take him.
