I wouldn't shoot that deer he's not old enough. Now if all you had were 3.5 year old 110" deer then shoot away or lease another another spot. There are tons of hunters who shoot young deer than bitch because they NEVER see 5.5 year old 150' deer. You must let the young ones (4.5 and under)walk if you want a monster and I know it's a hard thing to do but it came be done. Now some of that does depend on how big of a place you are hunting on and what's around you. I agree he is not a day over 3.5 His hair is parted from his mother's udder and he still has milk on his upper lip. Give him some age you might crap yourself when you see that deer in 3 years. Then again he is at your feeder. Do as you please.

Looks like an over achieving yearling to me. Look at that cute face. But I'm no expert. Seriously, on our place, that would definitely be a shooter.

He may be 3.5 to 4 year old..nice eight..Let him grow two more years -if you can stand it- and then send us pictures of him and he may be a buck worthy of the news papers.Or just a REALLY BIG eight. Id wait... This is all up to you.

I'd say he is 126-128", and I'd shoot him if I wanted him.

OP Nice buck! To the Tirader who's gone  Most of the post just ask, Guess the age & score. I put one out there that asked; Would You? Asking if they would shoot it given my circumstances. You need to get a girlfriend and some better booze, enjoy the nonsense, its all good! You did do this. On a positive note........ Your little rant should keep my thread active most of the day Why do people insist on putting pictures of obvious shooter bucks and ask an obvious question of "should I shoot this bro, not sure if he is good enough"?
"trophy" buck, aka shooter buck is in the eye of the beholder. Some are perfectly happy to shoot just legal bucks that are 2.5yrs old, and they are excited to have one down and meat in the freezer, others are after giants and let deer like the pic above walk all day in search of bigger or in favor of their management program. Sorry but I am never asking approval to shoot an obvious shooter, that the large majority of folks on here would probably give their paycheck to shoot! it’s a little vain if you ask me. that’s a great buck, good age and nice horns...but regardless, do YOU like it, and if so, and you get the chance at it, freakin shoot it and post the pics of your trophy for us all to congratulate you on! People will critique a deer on cam all day, but I see very few ever argue if it was a shooter after LDP's are posted, nothing but congratulations at that point, as it should be. Yeah i agree but dang calm down its just for fun . sorry don't mean to sound to agressive.....after a few dozen of these, it starts to get irritating! I would post that pic and say, Man I hope I get a chance at this buck, it would look great on my wall!.....and if the haters wanna hate, thats there problem. But that's just me.

Ok a little background....
He's on a 300 acre place surrounded by smaller places with trigger happy hunters. Would you still let him walk?
What kind of lights does it shoot out? Like are we talkin the mini bulb Christmas lights or a 500 watt flood light?
