3.5, if theres a chance he would be shot by another hunter i would try to get him. If there isnt much pressure i would give him another year.

3.5

Without know location, poor pictures for aging, etc... I would guess 3.5 with a MAX of 4.5 with poor range conditions

He's a Hays County deer. I had him at 3 when I passed on him a little over a week ago. Then my dad shows me a photo of a deer that he says was mature and may be a shooter for someone. Yep, same deer. We debated back and forth on this on. I told him to get new glasses and let the dang deer walk. He won't shoot him, but I was worried that he would let someone else drop him. He agreed this morning to let him go.

2.5

3.5, Id let him walk another year

3.5

Bad angle but I can't put him over 3yrs. Back looks straight, chest is a little thin and just looks lean all around. If you can, let him see another summer.

i agree

[aggie2000tx]

3.5 max. He needs another year

[Muygrande]

I agree with the 3.5 max. Could be fooled by the angle but from what I can tell straight back, not too much development in the shoulders, and no roman nose or the "squinty eye" look that most mature deer seem to get.

2.5 YOA.

I do not see a mature deer in this one.
