I’ve never aged a buck or measured the rack , i shoot em and eat ‘em . Although I do have a measurement system, last years was a 3 X 2 , 3 hour drag , fell twice .

I really try to stay out of threads like this one, but I agree 100%...most guys are clueless and watch too much Outdoor Channel. I guess I am fortunate/spoiled to have grown up an area of the sta

You’d have to pole guys at the lunch stop or buying licenses, doing it here where most are very into deer hunting would squew the numbers .
My guy here does more then that big one in Buffalo, Buck and Doe , hundreds a year .Dec checks age based on teeth , along with health , size ect  Dec doesn’t measure at the processor. 
 
Where I go it’s one deer done by one butcher , never any hair , packaged very well never any freezer burn after more then a year . 
 
he’ s dropped the rate for me when I bring in a small one , after breaking my balls first .
 

IIRC the Buck and Doe does 900+

Perfect example of If you didn’t have 3 years of photos, some WNYers would say he’s 2.5 because they only go by inches and he’s not P&Y. Meanwhile
He’s 4.5, maybe 5.5+.

Nothing will convince Jeremy. He also doesn’t believe in counting rings for Sheep horn age or trees

Jeremy believe in the hangin' curveball... high fiber... good scotch... that the novels of Susan Sontag are self-indulgent overrated crap... He believes Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. He believes there ought to be a Constitutional amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter. He believes in the sweet spot, soft core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve, and he believes in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days. Goodnight."

Thats amazing Chef . That buck had the exact same rack 3 years in a row . Maybe just a bit thicker this year than 2020 , but the same 7 point rack . Very nice buck . Congrats again . So if this was your target buck , what was the 1st one ? You called that one your target buck . Was the 1st one even bigger than this one ?

So there is another buck with a very similar rack. This is my target buck. I’m guessing I stuck this guy last time. With the head in the brush very hard to tell them apart

It's crazy to think that 89% of the wild north American whitetails average about the same amount inches grown per year EXCEPT where some of our very own members hunt.

Seriously, consider how crazy that is !!

Even @Four Season Whitetail's will agree !!!

I guess you guys are lucky in the sense it's alot cheaper to mount a jawbone with a certificate from deerage than doing a shoulder mount.

You’re saying all of North America whitetails have the same racks? Anticosti island? Florida? Iowa? NY?

That’s the most idiotic thing I’ve ever heard. So what is the average 1.5 score? And average 2.5 score?

Are you saying Chef’s buck is 1.5 for the 4th year in a row because he’s not 115”?

Chef will most certainly get a shoulder mount and have it back in 4-6 months too. Who wouldn’t mount a 4.5-5.5 buck that he chased for 3 years?

Why hate instead of congratulate? He showed the 2020 and 2021 and 2022 pics

Aging by inches = amateur hour

I'm not saying that, the stats are. Dig around, you will see, you may also learn something about a deers antler growth.

I would also encourage you to do 2 things, plant food that promotes antler growth and shoot some does as they are the ones carrying these bad genetics you speak of.


You are so stuck on this age thing and it's obvious why.

Why did you come out of nowhere after posting 0
Hunting reports to cry about Chef’s being 4.5+ or 5.5+? Why can’t you congratulate the guy for chasing a buck for 3 years and killing it?

I ran a soil test in 2016 and needed a gazillion pounds of Lyme to even get started in a spot you cannot get equipment too. Gets back to the geography/soil.

We don’t have a lot of pancake flat farmlands to use tractors and ATV’s on.

Your both wrong.  It’s not about inches of antlers and its not about age. 
 

Think Arby’s :

I like this side of [mention=871]BizCT[/mention] … now if only he could get his politics straight 

I’m not hardcore either way. I have personal beliefs and that’s it. I believe in abortions up to 12 weeks, but I hate govt handouts, loan transfers/forgiveness, free healthcare, and stimuluses.

Is the lower jaw in hand yet?
Was the buck weighed?
Congratulations chef.

I did not have him weighed. I will have the lower jaw back next week I’ll take some pictures before I sent to deer age

Pictures seem allusive….. :)

I hope the front lowers are on their way to deerage.com and we’ll see a few pics of the lower jaw PDQ.   

I had a bad day and need SOMETHING to brighten my evening.   Lol

Jaw is still at the butcher. He’s about an hour from my house so I will get the cape when I pick up the deer
