Jorden Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 I already posted this pic a few weeks ago but the more I look I him the more I wonder exactly how old he is. He is a decent buck for around here but to me he doesnt look that old. Im thinking 2.5, maybe 3.5 yrs old. What do you guys think:confused:.

Tom2008 Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 (edited) 3 1/2 max, 2 1/2 minimum. Judging by the rack and body size I would say 3 1/2. I don't know the genetics of your area, but from what I see around here that would be atleast 3 1/2. The face does look younger though so it is hard to say.

Ethan Givan Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 Im gonna guess 2 1/2. Im certain he is no more than 3 1/2. He just doesnt have that belly sag and sway in his back as an older deer and his face looks young. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackedUpZ71 Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 For what I know about wisconsin deer I would say he's a solid 2 1/2 year old with some good potential. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danthehuntinman Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 I would guess he is 2 1/2 from looking at his body structure and his antlers are not out past his ears. Most 3 1/2 yr olds are a little wider than that and the bodies are built a little different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fly Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 Looks like 2.5 from the body, but sometimes those summer deer look younger than they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 Looks like 2.5 from the body, but sometimes those summer deer look younger than they are. Yep, think that deer is probably closer to 3.5 than he is to 2.5. Look at the area in front of the back legs. It is not tapered upward, almost as thick as the chest. Usually 2.5 year olds are not as thick going back into the gut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruttinbuc Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 Looks like a 3.5 to me, also. His front end is really starting to get thick. At 4.5 they look like a linebacker. This boy already shows that potential. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redkneck Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 I'm guessing 3.5, he's filled out pretty well. He's going to look nice when that coat changes color and his neck doubles in size during the rut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NC8point Posted August 17, 2009 Report Share Posted August 17, 2009 I agree with everyone else on this one 2 1/2 no more than 3 1/2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickel Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 3.5 at most, i would lean more towards 2.5 though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nemodeerhuntersneighbor Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 Hes a 3 yr old. So that would make him 3.5 about Nov. 1(Depending on when fawns are generally born in your area). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
