How old is this buck?
Filed under: How Old Is This Buck?
I just want to really thank you guys for making such an amazing show! I’ve tried your food plot techniques, and have had great success with the clover, and next fall I’m gonna try some sort of radish plot for winter.
I’m so happy because I ended up hurting my arm badly in sports and I thought I wasn’t gonna be able to hunt, but God healed it up enough after surgery and I was able to harvest a buck with a gun in regular season! (the 4 by 3) I just have a quick question, how old you think these bucks are?I’m developing a hit list for next year since I’ll be bow hunting. (I want to shoot at least a 2.5 year old buck.)
Also I just want to let you know that as soon as I heard about your father I’ve been praying ever since!
Thanks again,
Jeremy
Jeremy,
Congratulations on your harvest! I’m glad to hear you were able to get out this season despite your injury.
Looking at these photos, I believe these bucks to be 1.5 years old. These bucks will continue to grow in size a develop more mass as they age. By this time next year they will have reached your 2.5 year old goal. I’m impressed by you setting goals and actively managing food plots. We have found Eagle Seed Broadside(http://www.eagleseed.com/BROADSIDE.html) to be a great fall time food plot, it is easy to plant and yields great results. This work will continue to be beneficial for you and your local deer herd.
I know the Woods’ family truly appreciates your prayers!
Growing deer together,
Matt
