Will he get any bigger? And any ideas on how old he will be this season? What did he score last year? Thanks.

He looks to be in the 140s last year. He'll probably be bigger this year. Whether he gets more beam and tine length or whether he just gains mass is anyone's guess. I'd say he could be anywhere from the 140s to mid-150s this year.

Upper 130s to lower 140s last year. Probably 3.5 and a half last year

alot of people think deer only live to be 5 y/o..i say poooey...imo he is prolly 4 er 5 in these pics. about 135" er so..if he's hanging around..this would be a guy to let walk again. he has good symmetry.

He looks similar to this one. He was 3.5 years old.

Who says that? I've never heard that before. A lot of QDM guys won't shoot a buck until he's 5.5 to 6.5 years old.

Unless they get shot or hit by a car, deer can easily hit 10 years old in optimum conditions. Of course this could be cut short by bad winters, poor food, disease, etc....

4 1/2 this year - high 140's, which is a little bigger than what I would have scored him in last years pic.

Im putting him at 135ish..No way he gets to 140s. He doesnt have the genes from what it looks like so Im not thinking he will get much bigger.. short tines and spindly rack...tines are all maybe 1.5 inches longer than in 2010...jmo

I'd say he's grown about all that he will.

Looking at his growth progression over those years, I'd say he's prolly near max rack size. I think he's around 130"-135" (P&Y). For a southern buck, he's a good one! Good luck with him.

Minimum 3.5 yrs in 2011 136-138" gross...

Gr8 Buck and think he might get a little more mass, and if he springs a 1/2 - 1" per tine or grow a kicker - oh baby!!!

Great looking Buck! Best of Luck hunting him!
