Good morning.
Finally got my aging report back on bull from 2022. Any guesses? I will chime in with the answer after a few posts.

WAG of 8.5 years.
I was going off the antlers, after looking at the pic more I think he’s younger than 8.5, probably around the 5-6 range.

He’s a dandy, but I bet you had to cut that gravy with a chainsaw

Back in the day we used to be able to hunt Subbase Bangor antlerless deer archery.
I was hunting the Annex area end of first week in Dec and shot a big antlerless deer I thought was a doe
It turned out to be a buck that had already shed
You were required to contact the base biologist for a tooth extraction and tissue sampling
Got info back it was 16 years old
-
Over 10, hmm 10.5?
-
I would've guessed 5.5 prior to your hint so I guess I would've been way off.
I'll go 11.5. WAG

13 years old, and yes MAD MAX, the meat was a tad tough :yike:
