Biggest Buck to Date on new Property

[QB1]

I like to let bucks get to the ripe age of 4 years old but we all know how hard that is unless you own a serious piece of land.  This property is 25 acres surrounded by hardwoods and farm fields...along with many other hunters.  Chances are slim bucks like this make it through any year around hunting pressure.  Anyway I am curious to hear what others think the age of this buck  is and what it might score out of velvet?  I am thinking 3.5 years old 125-130 inches.

No clue but he's a shooter

I'd guess pretty close to that - pretty typical race horse appearance of a three year old.

I'd ballpark 125, but it looks like he has some brow kickers, etc. Even with the loss of mass after velvet comes off, I still think you have a decent scoring buck.

I'M going to put him at 4 and will push 130-135 gross.

I would think he is 3.5, looks like a real dandy!  Score is rough to estimate without him shedding. 

I would guess in the mid 130's possibly higher or lower depending on how his brow tines come out, they could still have some growth.  Lets do this again after he sheds then again when you get your hands on him, sounds like a good game plan!  Good luck!  Hope to see you in pics with him later!

I wouldn't pass him.  That's about all I know for score.  Good luck.  Would be killer to shoot him in velvet.

i'm going to say 121. i don't see enough mass or tine lenght for him to be higher than that.

Yup low 120's. Short Tines and maybe 17 wide? 18 Tops?   Biz this is what i was taking about on your cam's? Most times at least one decent buck shows himself?

I'll go with the majority here, 120's gross, looks like a 3 year old.

He is a shooter for sure.You can get a tape on that rack when you nail him.........Good luck

2 weeks from first pics of him.  Looks like his main beam are a little longer/closer to touching a tips compared to pics from 7/31.  Also got this funky little guy...guessing some sort of injury is the cause.

Nice deer

Not many 4.5 year old bucks seem to get killed.

Purty rare..........
