Wanted to get y’all’s opinion on this buck in terms of age.

Gumbo Man · 09-30-2022, 03:06 PM

Is this deer in Tennessee? Definately looks mature.

flywise · 09-30-2022, 03:10 PM

Old and eatin good

HogHunter34 · 09-30-2022, 03:34 PM

I’d say 3-1/2 to 4-1/2 maybe

Five at least. Neck meets brisket, shoulders as big or bigger than his hips, little belly on him. That’s what he’d be if it was here.

N.DaWoods · 09-30-2022, 03:43 PM

Wow that is a hard one for this central Texan, but I would guess 5

I did actually end up killing this deer on Christmas Eve but that hunt was on my mind so I thought I’d get y’all’s opinion. I was shocked to see the wear on his jaw/teeth when I pulled them. Very little tooth left at all. Can’t seem to find the pictures I took of his jaw but here’s some of him on the ground he ended up weight just under 300lbs.

He is at least 5.5 in that first pic

RR 314 · 09-30-2022, 08:26 PM

He's not getting any older. :-)

How shy of 300 was he?

I was hoisting him on my scale and pulley system and got to 277lbs on the scale and he had a leg still on the ground. I was by myself and couldn’t get him up any higher.
