Agree with 3.5. Front legs esp have length, meaning the shoulder isnt super developed. He doesnt appear to have a really beat up knee situation and his body is too clean for an aged old rigged deer. Can still see aome brisket to neck definition and there is no real sway to his back in standing upright pics.

There are single pics that make him look older, but the conglomerate of the pics show a young middle aged deer.

Not sure if these are even the same deer. This guy has weight and some age on him (5 from this photo). G-3 on the left beam has distinctive tilted forward look.

The G-3 on the left beam hear has much less of the tilt forward and even so, I would put 4 on him.

I agree. Appears to be a different deer.


You have to remember, they might not be drinking as much as we are.

Look closer at the pics-with the angle changes, you lose the bend as they bend in and also forward. Same deer in every pic.

Imo 4.5-5.5

Excellent point, Quit. The angle with him turned our way hides the curl in and somewhat distorts the forward lean. IMO.
I think he has some age. 5ish.


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

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

Pretty certain it’s the same deer. Thank you for all the replies.
