First buck in 3 years, First buck on my property. 230yard shot with a 243. tall 9pt. I have to measure one point on him to see if he makes 10pts... This will be my 4th 9pt if it doesnt.. I cant seem to break that plateau.. lol   |

I thought I had posted here but apparently I screwed up. George that is a great looking deer, better rack than I have ever shot. I am so glad to see that another deer didn't realise that the 243 isn't enough gun. Who needs a 30-06 when they have a 243 is my stance.

Good'un! I'll guess 2 1/2 yrs. old. Just practicing trying to age them on the hoof. What do you think?

hard to tell from that type of pic, but Im thinking 3 1/2
the first time I saw the deer I thought 3 1/2, but I am more unsure now that I had him in front of me..
Ill let you know when I get him aged

You can only really age them using the teeth. Crank his jaw open and have a look
