I posted this a couple of weeks ago but had nothing to weigh him with and am too new at this to guess how old, any answers? Thanks This was my first ever deer so I am wanting the info.

Can't begin to guess at a weight without something to reference. The way the skin looks all wrinkled and loose around his neck and ears I wouldguess he is a fully matured deer 5.5-6.5 year old.

probably 3 1/2,4 1/2 years old.like jkelly said it would be hard to guess without some thing to reference.my guess is 210 and probably 165 feild dressed.just my opinion 8-)

Hmm Id say 3-4....based on his face. Nice color and it matches the rest of his body. I think the wrinkles on his neck are just from the way he is laying.

I just love these "guessing game" threads, and I want to play too. Based on the rack, I would say that he is definitely over 2.5. As far as weight, he looks heavy enough that I wouldn't want to have to drag him too far.

Thank goodness he dropped in the open field, He was very heavy to pull around even a short distance.

Alot depends on where you hunt. At a friends place in south Texas, his 3 year olds look like our 5 year olds on the hoof. Those midwestern state's deer seem to look older than the deer around here as well.

Based soley on his head, I'd guess he was 4-6 years old, but hard to tell from the angle and zoom of the pic.

I'm going to stab at and say 3-1/2 to 4-1/2 as well and somewhere around 175 field dressed.



But I must say, that's one damn nice first deer ever!

Congrats!
