Title: How old you think this Blacktail is? Better Pics up.
Post by: Hunter Dug on December 12, 2014, 07:48:50 PM: [/b][/b]I took this buck in for a Euro this year and am usually pretty good at estimating age based on teeth wear. This buck has go to be the oldest I have ever seen based on his teeth. Any guesses.
