just for fun, post a photo of the jawbone (bottom) ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2023/01/full-31259-376304-65511c15_9b7f_4a3c_b203_ec23d5799820.jpeg) ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2023/01/full-31259-376305-d3df4fd3_eb2f_4ce4_a6d3_e7141100ff56.jpeg) ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2023/01/full-31259-376306-5aaca6ce_29f4_49fd_ab92_4e00471c7fab.jpeg) I don’t have the ones from this deer, but this one is from last year.
If you want some friendly advice, get a haircut and take a bath. You wouldn't get hassled so much.

IMO FWIW, That's a 4.5 year old garbage buck all day long. Gut, neck, slope of back 4.5 all day long. No pro by any means, if he's 3.5, that's the fattest 3.5 I've ever seen and junk up top. Even if he's 3.5 I wouldn't keep feeding him Kinda where I’m at-he’d have been in the truck at my place. Same. His body is too big to have a rack that small. 2.5 yo deer should have better racks than that.

This is not the first time..lol Hard to tell exactly from those pics of the jaw as a straight down view is required to see the wear of the 1st & 2nd molar and be able to tell if the dentine is wider than the enamel line. But, it probably is judging what I can from the side view.
High fence, low fence, no fence, it really doesn't matter as long as you're hunting!

He was not going to be much better from my experience with 8 points. Probably would have just been a very small (horn wise) mature bully. Shooting him was the right decision. Should have done it before he breeds anything though. Not very good genetics.
