hoosierhunter Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 his face looks over the hill to me but he looks so darn skinny in the back end. Do you have anymore pics of him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have to agree with HOOSIER. Face looks old, body looks old, however, the rack looks to that of a younger deer. Looks very thin for this time of the year when they should be all filled out. good luck to all the dog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cray8705 Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 I saw a show the other day where guys were aging bucks and one of the things they talked about was the belly. The younger the deer the straighter the belly, and the older the deer the more of a belly there is. It looks fairly straight to me so i'd go with 3.5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stickslinger Posted October 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 Thanks guys this is the only pic I have of this deer, I have to agree about the face looking older and the straight belly of a younger deer, thats why I was asking about the age. Hopefully in the coming days I can get a better pic of him, starting to get alot of different bucks showing up. This camera is under an apple tree in a small orchard that I hunt, in the last week I've gotten numerous buck pics from this location, to bad they are all in the middle of the night.

Prairiepredator Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 Looks like a young buck to me. I guess why I think that is because I live in Saskatchewan where I am used to seeing whitetails with pretty big bodies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
