Looks 4 to me
In that first pic it shows he is really not that 'necky' where it meets the brisket.

Heck of a nice buck no matter the age.


High fence, low fence, no fence, it really doesn't matter as long as you're hunting!

At first glance I thought 4, but the last 2 pics make him look a solid 5 to me. Good looking buck.

Great buck for sure. Maybe 5 but so hard to tell this time of year.


At some point in life its time to quit chasing the pot of gold and just enjoy the rainbow. FR

4 year old. Do you have picks of him from last year to see how he’s progressed. Hell of a deer.

Unfortunately, no other pics. This is in my buddies back yard, he lives on 15 acres about 6 miles from the Trinity river and since joining our lease last year I told him he should throw a feeder out there given the back of his property backs up to a wooded draw and there aren't may houses around. He'd never see a deer on his property now he has 3-4 bucks and at least 4-5 does that come by pretty regular.

I live in Waxahacie, just a stones throw from Ennis, and have always seen nice deer thru out the Elllis county area, and there are more and more showing up, and some really big one's being taken. There's alot more deer than people think now days.

if you are in a situation to where you can hold out on him for at least one more year, that thing may be a real freak monster for sure !!


Born to hunt and fish.

Great buck. I've seen deer along chambers creek when driving I-35. They hang out under the bridge in those pecan bottoms. Lots of deer in Ellis county.


Life is too short, as is. Don't chance it.
Don't text and drive.

My buddy (his property) may hunt him this fall but I won't be just wanted to share a beautiful deer. He may let him walk this year there's no telling the size of the deer's home range there's a lot of open county between him and the river bottom.
