Post up a pic of that jaw with the teeth when you can. I'm gonna start doing that, we all should start doing it, so everybody can get a far better idea of how old a deer is. Nice deer man! Bet those arms were shaking huh? LOL Mine do for every deer, doe, buck whatever. I love it. MattLA, The buck was 3.5 years old. If I have time tomorrow I'll go back down to my carcass dump and take a pic. I tossed it out with the guts and ribcage. I did pull it though and it is a perfect example of 3.5 year old molar wear.

Congratulations. Excellent buck to start out your retirement. Now somewhere out there is another... Thanks! You are correct. Only have 1 more buck to take so gonna have to be very picky. Would like to do it with a bow too, but we'll see......

Great shot on a really nice buck. Good job!
I'm just happy to be here! Today I'm as young as I'll ever be and and older than I've ever been before!

Well done sir!! What kind of broadheads do you use? Wasp Jak-Hammer 100 grain. 1.75" cut when open. It opens as it passes thru. Devastating wound channel. Flies just like field points...I've never had to broadhead tune. I'm shooting a Mathews Triax at 68 lbs, 27" arrows. That broadhead is the most overlooked and under advertised out there. It is an "over the top" opening expandable that is tough and after more than 5 seasons using them I have killed about 20 deer with them. They are quality made and have never failed. The wounds cause the "Wow" reaction. Have killed several 200 plus lb Midwestern bucks with them too....flawless performance. Check out the customer ratings any where they are sold. This broadhead has been on the market for 20 plus years and the design hasn't changed. I will never shoot anything else. I have bought up several. And they are reasonably priced at about $35 for 3.
