[QUOTE="Ski, post: 5767236, member: 20583"] Lots of speculations could be made. But at the end of the day he's in the same ballpark frame & size as the current record from many decades ago, so it's not a stretch to believe nature can produce such a beast without human help. It's just not common. And that was my point. What's more uncommon, a 200" typical in TN or a 9.5yr old wild buck? Both are so incredibly rare than I certainly wouldn't know that answer. Unfortunately the cementum annuli is the most accurate test we have for aging deer, which no doubt will happen, but even it isn't anywhere near 100% accurate. We may never know exactly how old he is. But I'd guess he's pretty old. [/QUOTE]
