deer age
I don't have a picture but, My brother in law shot a buck yesterday. 8 pointer, nice heavy rack. score about 110+. It had a broken front leg.(probably a car accident) He shoot it. Took it to the buck contest we are all entered in(goes by field dresses weight) weighed 236. So he it took it in to the CWD check-in, the guy there aged the deer at 1.5. I said no way. deer was well muscled, thick neck.
The area we hunt does have some really high quality bucks, 4 years ago a 225incher was taken, and there are great bucks in the area.
So without a picture is it possible a 236 pound field dressed deer could be 1.5 years old.
