Passed him up opening day! Help with age and score

[Lone_Wolf]

That could be a special buck in the making there. I'm seeing 4.5 as well. Great looking buck though!

Agree

Well I have passed him up three different times now. It keeps getting harder, but I have had this one come by but the 11 pt will not let him come in. Still early on the new place but liking what I am seeing. Any guesses on age of this one

5.5

Cause you’ll never kill a 150-160 class buck if you shoot em when they’re 130-140. That buck has the potential explode next year.

I understand all that, but! When given the oppurtunity, thou must seize it!

I have a buck exactly like this...each time I pass him, get harder to let him walk. But I know he will get better next year,...and...I have a bigger buck on camera than him.

Good luck! Nice pictures btw.

I think both are 4.5

[yazoomon]

I think you made the right call but that's just me. Good luck this year and the years to come.

That's a great picture!

Good looking buck. Big summer body, short curvy nose , somewhere around 5 years.
Deer in my area never get this big. He would had an arrow in him.

Great pass you will really like him in 3 yrs, he is 3.5

[White Falcon]

5.5, nose is getting short.

We have 360 in Oklahoma surrounded by small places that some of the locals have told me they shoot 5 young buck s a year each. But we have only shot one buck on it in the last 5 yrs. and every year we have at least 1-2 mature shooters to hunt. It's all about self control.

It is about self control for sure, but most have the attitude if i don't shoot it someone else will. unfortunately.

He gone!!!!!

Love that forked 2 on his left side and the little crab claw on the right beam. Great looking deer! I think he is either a healthy 3.5 y.o. or a 4.5 y.o. Second picture makes him look a little more 4.5, but other two pictures make him look more 3.5 to me.

My first thoughts as well. Looks a little too sleek for any older than 4.5 to me...
Could be super special next year or even 2 more years. Beast!

However old he is, you have a beautiful place to hunt with some really good bucks.

Congrats on that.
