Can someone help age this deer

[DanielT]

I have been patient and passed up small bucks on my 20 acres and finally had a 9 pointer and a 10 pt on camera...well the highway took a buck...arrrgh...just wondering age?

The third tooth in on the bottom jaw (third premolar) has 3 cusps which means it is a yearling (last years fawn). You can see the adult premolar growing underneath...

Not a expert but by his teeth and what's left of the antler a 1 1/2 at the most ....

I'm betting he doesn't smell very good either...

I agree with WNY Bowhunter.  he got it pretty well in his first post.  Also i'll add that the buck in your trail camera picture is a very nice buck for anywhere in the state.  good luck and hope you get a chance at taking him.  pay attention to the wind and all the little stuff.  he's not young and ignorant to hunters' efforts.

Doubt that's him. That one was eating rice too.

If your heart doesn't get broken a few times trying to grow bucks in NY - you're not playing the game.
