Atta boy scrub-buster. Very nice buck and a great write up about the hunt. Thanks for sharing!!!
By the way, what model of Martin are you shooting? Looks a lot like my Prowler.

looks more like at best a 3 1/2 not the mass that a 4 1/2 would have but still a great deer with a bow looks like he will score around 138 or so P&Y easy good buck Hope you mean body mass and not antler mass.

main beams look a little thin to be a 4 1/2. should have also been a 10 point main frame if it was 4 1/2 good deer at any age and it aint getting any older

I used the lower jaw and compared it to two different aging examples. Aging deer by their racks is not as accurate. Not every buck is destined to be a mainframe 10 point.

A DEER'S ANTLER POINTS ARE NOT IN ANY WAY A RELIABLE INDICATOR OF BIENG IN AN OLDER AGE CLASS! Niether is mass, or any other antler trait. Scub-Buster, that is a fine, obviously adult buck. It kills me how some people have to put down other hunters when they take a big deer. 99.9 percent of the people who would insist that is some kind of steroidal two year old would have shot it in a heartbeat. Ridiculous. WELL DONE.

im not trying to put him down on this buck. he said it looked 4 1/2 and i think its only 3 1/2. next year it would have been a mainframe ten point as you can see in the pic that his left beam has a sticker point this year on his g4. its a good buck in any regard and i would have shot it in a heartbeat with a bow. just dont know if it is a 4 1/2 year old buck is all im saying
