I follow the guidelines of the QDMA, definitely not a trophy manager, so no I wouldnt let it walk on 55 acres in a heavily hunted area. My realistic expectations for this property are 2.5 or better. But I expect it will have range shifted by then anyway.

I hope you get pics of him in the rut...I'm saying he is a 3.5 or tweener...
The early pics he looks super thick in the middle. I do see 2.5 in the neck and hips. Like I said, hope for later pics.

If he turns out to be 2 1/2, that may be the biggest 2 1/2 I've ever seen in TN.
