For East Texas, I think this is a nice buck, but how old do you think it might be?

Beautiful buck, hope he comes out in daylight and you get him. Wish I could get pics of a deer like that at our place in Cass county.

Upper 150's with great tine length and beam length may hit 160 but mass is only downside to a great looking buck! I would call him 7 in those pics. Good luck if you can keep your wife off of him!
Are idiots multiplying faster than normal people?

If I saw that deer on my East Texas lease I would only have 2 thoughts: 1- How is he going to taste 2- How the hell did he make it this long with the neighbors we have

I bet he's almost 100% nocturnal. You might get him during the peak of the rut. I'm guessing he's at least 6 yrs. old and mid 150's. Good luck!!
In the end, it's not the years in your life that count, it's the life in your years.

I bet he's almost 100% nocturnal. Coming in at 7:21pm? Unless that feeder is right in his bedding area he’s moving at least a little during legal. No way I pass him Mr. T, you or the wife need to bust him asap. Deer like that can fool you until you get him on the ground. He looks 150, but might grown depending on body size once you get your hands on him.
