Week #10 comes from our first video - Hunting with a Purpose - Volume 1. Flyers was one of the premier hunts on that video and served an important life lesson for me in the process...Some of you will remember this story from early October, 2008...I think you'll like it!

Check the video out if you haven't seen it already.

Next week features Hoffert's buck from HWP 1 as well.

The following weeks will have 2-3 hunts from our latest video with the final week featuring our "hit list" (trail cams/velvet footage).

Hope you enjoy and feel free to stop back each week! :way:
 
How old was that deer?? And what do ya think it would score?

He was 4 1/2 that year. I have a shed off him from 2 years previous. The buck with him was a lot bigger (body-wise) and was 5 1/2 at the time. I had him close once more that season (late) but couldn't seal the deal.

If he returns, he will be 7 1/2 this year.
 
I am no expert on age, but he sure does not look like a 4 1/2 yr old body. I'd say 2 1/2 maybe 3 ? I have one being aged by tooth by the DNr, just because I am curious. This buck being aged had a way-heftier body. The Biologist examined the jaw and said 3 1/2 maybe 4. He sent a tooth in for crossection. I am new at seeing these older deer, so I am trying to get a handle on aging. To me the thrill is more the age,,than the rack.
