I definitely see the very similar antler structure, but are you sure that's the same deer? I just don't see 7-8 years of age on him, assuming he's 1.5-2.5 years old in the 2008 pic.

Same deer, same stand....just a messed up camera Date doesn't work on a few of mine. The 2008 pic is from this year, just a one year difference.

Nothing in OUR guidelines would allow us to take him, but I would in a heart beat if that's all he's done in a year. Take him while the meat is still tender

My daughter took one like that last year. But he was a little older and had a G3
If you shoot a young deer because a neighbor will shoot it, you are that neighbor.

What are you gonna do. Sometimes they jump to something better, sometimes not. I always give them a pass being that young and see what happens.

If I send my neighbors a text and ask them to give me feedback on my lawn and plant rye into a giant dong pattern, I'm probably going to get some less than positive feedback. Same goes here.

Almost looks like 2 photos over a couple days! Face is the only thing that looks "older"

Here's a 7 pointer that I'm considering taking if I see him.
If you want some friendly advice, get a haircut and take a bath. You wouldn't get hassled so much.

Redchevy, the way he is "posing" in the 1st photo, would win a ribbon at the fair!

Thanks, I always loved that picture. He ruled the roost while he was around, not much to look at, but he backed down to no other deer and was a regular feeder maid.

Giving them age didn't work well for this guy either: The Life and Times of Fivel The Buck Dust to dust, ashes to ashes. Fivel hasn't been seen since 2013 and I didn't shoot him because he had broken a mainbeam the one time I did see him that season. I assume he has gone to the big protein feeder in the sky.

He dressed between 140 and 150. On second thought... I think that was his live weight, but cant recall, ive slept since then

He ruled the roost while he was around, not much to look at, but he backed down to no other deer I had a big bull of a six like that. Dude was flat out mean and I have no doubt did lots of breeding. A buck within 100 yards of him was taken care of in short order, their age or antler size didn't matter to him. Finally killed him, never been more proud of a cull than that one.
