Depends on how much and what he eats, but you know they can get a lot bigger than that in Manitoba.

I agree. Judging by the body, I think in a year, you will probably have a deer that most hunters would be happy to shoot out of that one. I would guess a nice 8 or possibly a 10.

I think it should be well fed, it is in a mostly agricultural area with corn, beans and wheat. Hope I find it next year!

I just can't resist

The bucks in my billfold stopped growing a long time ago. They are into
downsizing.

He looks like a young deer to me, and that's a decent rack for a young buck. My guess would be that he has the potential to be a really nice buck!!

What do you guys think... is this the same buck? The rack is a little longer but has the same shape? It is from the same area.
