We age our bucks by their molars wear, as for weight of these Deer, all were taken after the rut, so they lost about 25% of their body weight, #1 was the heavy weight at 180# #2 Was in poor condition and had some infected puncher wounds from fighting, I don't remember what he weighed, #3 weighed 176#, all of them would have weighed around 200# more or less before the rut.
South Texas Bucks, peak at 6 1/2 to 7 1/2 yrs old, the oldest I have ever killed we called him 12 years old, he scored about 125" and weighed 160#
We try to take Bucks based on age not score, unless they are a very poor quality buck, we take them when we see them. Rio7
Awesome! Keep up the good management!
