Pictures from this year:










I think it's the same buck. How old would you say he is this year?? 3.5 or possibly 4.5yo ?

The primary tines look the same and the age class this year fits. The brows are nice this year but seem to be shorter though and that is the only thing that does not fit. He looks to be 4 this year to me.

I'm thinking 3.5

? Derned if the 2011 buck don't look older??

3.5 for sure!

3.5 last and 4.5 this year

You sure you don't have that backwards

3.5

Much obliged. Always reassuring to get feedback.

Nice Buck, I would say 3.5 also very good Buck for the area.

In those pics I'd also say 3.5; hope you see him this year!

young

I think 4 as well. If he is what you want, take him. If you want a 160 to 180 class deer, I bet he will be that in a year or two.

4 year old for sure.

4.5

3.5 and something to think about, we talk like all fawns are born at the same time. The gestation period for a white tail is roughly 198 day or bascily 6.5 months. So with that said if a fawn is born from a early rut and another born from the secondary rut, they are born in the same year but with 3 to 3.5 months difference in age, I have seen the rut trickle along from Thanksgiving till the end of Jan in my area, along with this, genetics and feed conditions could this effect body size and a differance in the age apperance. Making some of us say 4.5 and some say 3.5 just asking ?

Well fed 2.5 year old..

So that would make him a overly well fed 1.5 yr old in the first few pics then?

4.5

no way thats the same buck, theres more than one ten point that looks like that i asure you. just because his browtines are similar doesnt mean its the same buck. u have two good ones this year

3.5 and it looks like he just got some. A very guilty look on his face in that 3rd photo
