3 or 4. Let him live!

Young narrow bucks turn in to this at 5 years old. Or can at least. This one was 5 1/2 and was the first year he was legal.

Now we are talking! OP this is a mature deer

I'm not trying to debate this, but that make's no since... what would be the point of shooting spikes or even culling any buck then?? I have let many young deer walk year after year(have not shot a deer in 4 years). I'm have a difficult time aging this buck with the pictures i have. Never was trying to get permission to let this buck walk or not. ALL I WANTED was what every thought the age of this buck is....

You shoot spikes to even out your buck to doe ratio, or take mouths off the feed bill when you have too many deer.. Culling is just an excuse to shoot something. If you wanna shoot him by all means, but if you are asking online it's because you already know in your gut he is borderline
