Nice buck! I am thinking he is not on the down slide, but who knows  :dunno:. Does not have the old buck look in the face and his bases are not all gnarly and stuff.

 I am probably wrong though, I usually set myself up to fail with my opinions   :chuckle:.

 Dandy buck, good and wide!
:yeah: Dominant fighter for sure but usually when bucks regress their rack gets tighter not wider. He's probabely around 3 1/2 years old and was and will always be a 2 point

there is no doubt in my mind he is an older buck ..4 0r 5 year old ... just looking at his head tells me he is not a young deer ! those old 2s need to be shot  :tup:

My guess he is not a regress buck. He is a nice buck but doesn't have the classic roman nose of a older blacktail

That has to be one of the coolest two point rack I have seen.  Nice buck, what did his teeth look like over all?  Let us know what you hear after you send the tooth in!

nice though
"When my bow falls, so shall the world. When me heart ceases to pump blood to my body, it will all come crashing down. As a hunter, we are bound by duty, nay, bound by our very soul to this world. When a hunter dies we feel it, we sense it, and the world trembles with sorrow. When I die, so shall the world, from the shock of loosing such a great part of ones soul." Ezekiel, Okeanos Hunter
