Please age for me. I really think I may let him go one more year to see what he turns into.

The one in the back of the first picture and the last two pictures are all the same deer. I was thinking 4.5 but wasn't for sure. I have been lucky enough to be able to take our No. 1 hit list bucks for the last 2 years he is certainly close to the top.
 
LOL, need pics closer to the rut. If you pass that deer up (and you're in TN), you are smoking crack ;) (and I'm about as picky as they come).

I MIGHT pass that deer up on some of the properties I get to hunt as a guest on in Mississippi, but ... nah, on second thought... no way I'm passing that deer up anywhere, anytime, anyhow.

:lol: My thoughts exactly. You can do what you want, but that is a great deer. I would have to shoot a truckload of bucks that caliber before I considered passing one up.
 
I was wondering if I smoked crack when I posted this, looking back. All seriousness I have started getting pictures of the 10 point again at night. I know his general area just waiting on the right winds and circumstances to be able to hunt. I have been pretty fortunate the last couple of season in this area taking a 160 class and 140 class. So hopefully when in the next couple of weeks I can get a look at him on the hoof. I know we have a few that are bigger but we cant get any pictures of them.
 
Well, that buck won't go 160", but he'll blow 140" out of the water (I think he'll go around 155"). My personal cutoff in sheer inches of antler where I disregard age altogether is 150". Even though that deer is probably mature, I don't think I'd ever even glance at his body after seeing the rack except for where to place the bullet ;)
 
Re: Age please/updated

Never got a daylight picture of him or saw him on the hoof until Sunday morning. He came by at 6:00 and stayed just long enough for me to take a shot. Tagged out for the year didn't score as much as I thought, but was definitely a mature deer. He made one mistake.
