Need help on a deers age….

[redblood]

This deer is extremely killable at the moment. In these situations i 99percent of the time pass anyway if there is any doubt on maturity. Rough coat, fat and full necked leaves me to believe he is mature. But hes not as old as a few others using the area. What is your assessment on age.

 

[Tn Joe]

What age do you considered to be mature?

 

[redblood]

4.5 as a minimum. Although when the moment comes i usually wont a shoot one

 

[trout]

He appears fully mature and at least 4-1/2.

Looks like a 4.5 in the 3rd pic. Would lean 5.5 in the last pic.

 

[backyardtndeer]

He is definitely 4.5 or older.

 

[Lost Lake]

I'd guess around 4.5+ from those pics. He's been into the dumplings' a few times it looks like. Think I saw a Cracker Barrel logo on his butt cheek.

Old enough

Lol. Didnt check the butt cheeks

 

[DoubleRidge]

4½ easy. 5½ wouldn't surprise me. Nice buck!

 

[megalomaniac]

Def 4.5 or older

 

[Ski]

Yeah he's not a day under 4.5. Unless I had something else on radar, I'd pop him given the chance.

 

[PossumSlayer]

Kill him

 

[PossumSlayer]

His body side view makes his rack look small because he's so damn big

I'd guess over 20" spread. Not a real high scorer but he'd be a very impressive euro mount with that width. I'd shoot

He is at least 4.5 and would not get a pass from me!
