[QUOTE="Ski, post: 5502245, member: 20583"] I'd say at bases looks 3.5"-4". And he's got a couple more stickers than I seen in first video. My thoughts are he's a huge 3.5yr old or late born 4yr old. His mostly nocturnal behavior fits that age profile, too. In my experience, 5yr+ olds have been easier to target and hunt than 3yr & 4yr olds just because the younger bucks roam all over the country and move a whole lot through the night. Seems once they get a little age on them they tend to stay closer to the safety of their core, and their core shrinks. I've noticed many of the old ones also get to a point where they say screw it and seem to lose fear, then start daylighting frequently at all times of day. I don't know if that behavior is old injures catching up, or their minds are slipping, or what. But in my experience hunting an old buck is actually easier than hunting one in his prime. The problem is having one to hunt. [/QUOTE]
