Just put up a new feeder and look what showed up, we have never seen this deer before this. I hate to ask same dumb question everyone asks but what the heck. How old and any guess what he might score. By the way this is a East Texas deer on less than 100 acres at $6.00 per acre.

I wont guess an age, but will say I think he is mature enough. He would make the coolest euro.

I have a hard time scoring those things even when they're dead and I'm standing over them with a tape. Looks like a fairly mature animal to me.

sweet looking buck. No clue on age, he doesn't appear to be that young, but he doesn't look that old either. Please tell me that this <100 acre lease is not around Nacogdoches.

Thanks If we ever see it again one of my young boys will get a chance at it, it's all about them learning the thrills of hunting.

hard to tell the age without seeing the full legs and body. His neck is pretty thick so could be 4.5 or better. Nice deer.

Id say mature at a minimum. No real good pictures of the body, but my guess would be 5.5 or more. No way im guessing a score on that!

One ugly, but cool looking buck. Looks mature to me, even if he wasn't id still drop him. Very unusual looking. Good luck, i hope you drop him.

IM thinking 5.5 and Im too lazy to try to add up that many numbers. Hopefully he slips up during the daylight hours and you get a chance at him.

5 yr old minimum on age. He looks like a low to mid 150's deer depending what is the mainbeam on that palmated side. That will effect his score.

Have your boys DRAW STRAWS to see who gets the first chance. It's the only way to be fair.
VERY nice buck. I would not let him take another step if he walked out in front of me
