Why judging a Buck’s age is extremely difficult

[rwboutdoors]

You’d have to really know your deer to know that was the same deer, just older and on the decline. You’re prolly right but I’m not completely convinced it’s the same deer. I fully understand that deer eventually go downhill body size and antler size decline. Enjoy yalls content!

Of he is he still looks good maybe needs a little more mass on the body

How is this showing that it's hard to tell? Is it because it looks so similar when it's 3 years younger? (I presume under legal hunting age?)

It not hard if you're a average hunter them deer r 3yr olds
