wtnhunt Posted October 17, 2009 Report Share Posted October 17, 2009 Think 4.5 Todd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redkneck Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 I was going to say 3.5 till I saw that last pic. Man he's got some mass on that frame of his. Good deer to take out right there, real gnarly looking too. Hope you get a whack at him Todd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkeygirl Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 Wow, he is darn cool! Does he have an old injury that you know of that may have caused the deformed antler? Either way what a neat buck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tominator Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 He looks to be at least 4, but I'm thinking 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorden Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 My guess would be 4.5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toddyboman Posted October 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 Wow, he is darn cool! Does he have an old injury that you know of that may have caused the deformed antler? Either way what a neat buck! I have no clue where he came from.....I have been looking through all of my pictures from last year and I can't seem to find a match. I have also searched all my pictures of him from this year and I can't seem to "see" an injury to maybe know why his rack is the way it is..... He is need but I really don't like his genetics for his age so I am hoping someone gets a chance at him..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snapper Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 I first was thinking 3.5...but looking at that last pic...he maybe 4.5...kinda hard to tell. I'd take him out either way...neat looking rack! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitetailtrax Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 Interesting rack there Todd. Not sure how old he is, but my vote is to let him walk this fall, find his sheds in the spring, and then let's see what he looks like next fall .

Not sure how old he is, but my vote is to let him walk this fall, find his sheds in the spring, and then let's see what he looks like next fall . might be my only chance at ever holding his horns.......Well unless he makes a mistake during the rut and the right person is behind the gun/bow. Since October every picture I have gotten of him has been in the wee hours of the morning. He seems to be pretty nocturnal. And since I have hardly hunted the farm I have to believe it's his natural ways cause hunting pressure shouldn't be the reason... But you can bet if he makes it through the season he will be at the top of my list of sheds to find!! :D:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 I first was thinking 3.5...but looking at that last pic...he maybe 4.5...kinda hard to tell. I'd take him out either way...neat looking rack! Yep me too, I was all good until the last pic. In the third pic he looks like a 3.5 for sure, then you had to throw in the last one...

I know exactly how you guys feel.... I have thought all summer he was 3.5 then fall started and I still thought 3.5 now the last pic came up and well shucks I now am thinking he could be 4.5.....:48:.:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted October 22, 2009 Report Share Posted October 22, 2009 So many times people post pics of deer early on and then later on and the deer seems to explode with thickness in a very short time in the neck. Good example that it can be deceiving in the early season or before season starts. Still think that deer is a 4.5 year old Todd, I actually kind of thought maybe 5.5, but his back and belly don't quite fit. Put the deer on the ground and compare his teeth to an aging chart and let us know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airman312 Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 I would say 4 at the most Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
