How Wide? And Age?

[billinkb]

This buck is in a Antler Restriction County. I love his mass. Don't look wide enough to me. What you think? How old you think he is?

[Brian H]

Too close to call, but he is plenty old

[Txpepper]

That's a tough call. I'm not sure.

[Mr. Whiskers]

Old enough, not wide enough.

ANOTHER prime example of an AR protected mature buck. Looking at the body its a mature buck, probably not wide enough. Big base circumference, big belly, large body and neck is full at his brisket, slight sway in his back, hump shouldered. Not alot of wrinkles though.

14

[Bleu]

Agreed. Not wide enough.

I'd say 11 wide I had a deer that needed to die last year but the local game warden told me he would have to give me a ticket even tho he said it needed shot.

11-12" wide and 6.5+

[Fightinaggies]

Here's a link to another deer for reference, he was right at 12"

Show your GW the photos and ask permission, he's a shooter.

Lets not act like this is the norm, yes this deer is old and won't make it but I guarantee you he is in the vast minority of bucks his age

Seriously ? Game wardens enforce the law, and the law says 14"

Don't you enforce the law ??
