3.5 still looks like a young race horse.

If we were supposed to be vegetarian God would have made broccoli more fun to shoot!
"HOYT" why would you even consider shooting something else?

3.5 was my guess as well. He just hast filled out yet. There is no shortage of food in the area so he's not missing any meals

3.5 - 4.5? He does look young. Very impressive antler growth, he is a dandy for sure!

It is because when the bucks are in hard antler it is the fall and they are an additional 6 months in age. When you live only a few years .5 makes a difference. As far as humans, I hate it when people refer to their kids as being "26 months" etc!

Big difference...... Think of shooting a deer that is half a year old..... Then think of shooting a deer that is 1 1/2 years old...

half year old is a yearling to me, still dont see the reason but to each his own. Guess it goes into the same category of counting eye guards
