    Central Texas Buck

    Hey Guys, I'm fairly new and inexperienced at aging bucks. I've been trying to educate myself to become a better trophy hunter/game manager. I snapped a few pictures of this guy and I'm trying to confirm my beliefs of how old he is. Let me know what you think. I'm still learning, so let me know what feature you see that influences your age guesstimate. Thanks!

      I think he'll be 4.5 this fall. Got a little ponch on his belly and his brisket is starting to become more pronounced. I hunt in Central Texas (Blanco and Burnet) and I bet he would make book in another year or two.

                    Looks 4.5

                    We killed a very similar rack and body shapes buck last season. Surprised when we looked at his jaw. Estimated 4.5

                          I was thinking 4.5. He is definitely a shooter, but I think I'll pass knowing he's got another year of potential. I'd be willing to take the chance.

                            4.5, possibly older. More age definitely wouldn't hurt him.
