Can anybody tell me the age of this deer.
Here is the buck that I shot this yr it had a 16inch inside spread and a 24inch neck girth and i'm just curious to see how old people think this deer is.

Just a dart thrown but atleast 2-1/2 yrs old.
If you want to know how old the deer you shoot are then you really gotta learn to check their teeth for age. What you do is cut the gum straight back so that ou can see the rear teeth. You look at the wear of those rear teeth and make you determination by what you see.
Here's a few links to aging.....
