Going through some of last years game cam pics trying to dig up some old pics of some of this years deer and came across this old timer. If you wanted to know what to look for in a very old deer it is just about all here. Good study pic. Also we tried to take this deer and about the time deer season started he was never seen again.

Hoss for sure

There's a perfect lesson for leaving antlers out of the age guessing equation.

10 pointers and Sneaky I couldn't agree more...Beautiful hunting area too. Looks like a caliche riverbed in the upper right hand corner. Definitely southwest Texas.

Yep. Shoot that deer and cut its skull cap off. When you take it to show off your trophy, many would think you shot a baby with lots of potential.

He is not old....just got short legs...sorta your T-Rex of the deer world

Give him a pass and toss a few Viagra in that feeder for the old timer so he can mix it up when the rut hits

.....but there's a bunch out there with tunnel vision! Can't see anything after seeing the rack.

(I thing there's a mate picking point in here somewhere!)

that deer will die of old age....love those smart old bucks.

ol grandpa! poor guy just lived a short racked life!

what did that guy look like 2 years ago, 3 years ago..... at what point did he go from having potential to we should take him out... why was last year the year he should go.....

Haha. He needs another year for sure.
