What is the age of this buck?
Filed under: How Old Is This Buck?
Question
Was wondering if you could help age this buck? At first I thought he was pretty old, but the more I look at him the younger i think he is. Any help would be appreciated.
Mr. Daniel,
I believe you are correct in saying this buck is younger than he is old. His stance makes him appear to be older than what he actually is. He has a small neck and a small base of circumference around his antler bases. His rear hams are much larger in comparison to his front shoulders. These signs are typically of a 2.5 year old deer.
Thanks for sharing,
