I have no clue, sorry. I have to see the deer to guess at age, I know the jawbone is the correct way, but it is hard for me to determine by looking at that.

I’m going 3.5 on this one.,

I think the book answer is 3.5 so I’ll say 4.5. The chart is always a little off for the known deer I’ve compared to it.

 

[sea trout]

At one point i was questioning whether he was 2.5.

I settled on 3.5 though. Like i said ive only tried it a few times.

Are we allowed to see the antlers as part of this learning experience?
