Had him on camera last year but can't find the photo right now. Not sure if he progressed or degressed. What's your thought on age and meeting AR requirements?

No way he's 13" inside. He does look old with that big body, and low hanging gut.

Bad this is he's an old mature buck that won't make the AR requirements. Good thing is you can save your buck tag for one of those giant bucks that east Texas is noted for

He is old and will not make AR. That is what is wrong with AR rules. That buck needs to be harvested.

^^^ Yes. This would be one of the bucks that won't be shot because of AR, and should be. Nothing you can do about it.

he's right at 13, just split his wig.

Question for the OP, have you ever had the opportunity to shoot that deer or is he a phantom of the night?

I see several every year that need to be culled, as they will never meet the AR's. Just one more gripe I have about TPAW and their goofy restrictions. No reason to keep a cull buck in the breeding pool other than some guy sitting at a desk somewhere deciding to make another rule. You might have a few years more to watch that guy running around in the rut.

He is old and will not make AR. That is what is wrong with AR rules. That buck needs to be harvested. Agreed. All his wide buddies will get shot, but he get's a free pass to knock up all the does he can catch... spreading his narrow rack genetics and making things worse.
To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you hit the target.www.NewHopeEquine.com - Health and Healing through Horses.

It'd be a shame not to shoot him, that is a nice deer. Probably not what you want to see in your gene pool, especially the way the law is written, but still a nice deer.
Shoot. Eat. Repeat.
