Life is too short, as is. Don't chance it. Don't text and drive.

5 yr old and low to mid 140's. I got 143.
Are idiots multiplying faster than normal people?

5 yr old and low to mid 140's. I got 143. I got 141 but this is my first year on this lease so I'm trying to get a better idea of aging these larger bodied deer. I've hunted almost exclusively in the hill country and these deer are a lot larger than what I'm used to seeing. He's the only mature buck I have on camera, so I've still got a ways to go before I'm familiar enough with these deer to be confident in my aging/scoring. I'm using a base of 80-85" as my mass, spread, beams score and then adding on the tines to get my total field score.

Right around the 140's. His g4 are a little short to carry him much further. I hunt Archer myself.

Here on my place now I use 80-85" on mature bucks. I used 90" on this buck.

I killed a buck a whole lot like this several years ago and he went right at 140, so I think he's around 140. I don't think he's any older that 4.5. Might be 3.5 (imo) By the way, I hunt Archer County as well.
Secede!!

This, maybe 135! He will be a great deer if he can make it 1 more year.

About 30 sacks of sausage.!
I Feed Indian Corn. The deer love it and all the colors make them stay at the feeder longer.
