If this is an older age class buck, the genetics in that area are either poor or he is so old he is going down hill. But from his body build and posture he doesnt look like he has reached a ripe old age yet. I would advise to take this buck out of the herd this coming season if at all possible.
nobody can be sure how old a deer is unless they have visual or photos of him , for years . to be sure how old he his his teeth need to be aged. at the time of his death or harvest !
if ur not sure youd be happy with ur decision dont shoot
ive been hunting bucks since i was 12, now im 25 and ive never shot a deer under 187 b & c points. ive been lucky
THAT DEER WOULD BE VERY LUCKY TO SCORE OVER 110 B&C NO TINE LENGTHS NO MASS AND NO WIDTH
JUST AN AVERAGE EVERYDAY RUN OF THE MILL MULEY
NICE PIC THOUGH ALWAYS FUN TO GET GOOD PHOTOS

This is a classic management buck. He is crab clawed without eye guards. Take him out quick. those genes do not need to be passed on.
Enough of the talk, just take him out!
i agree with the last two take him out and enjoy wanderful mule deer stakes this winter
DEFINETLY NOT A VERY OLD DEER.HE’D LOOK GOOD ON THE WALL THOUGH
he’s a younger buck, maybe 3 or 4.
His head is too petite and narrow nosed to be any older.He will eat good too, shoot him.
nice thick beams on him. I say take him
I’d day that deer is 13 or 14 and probably on the downhill I’d shoot em

Looks to be a well aged blacktail, and a quality one at that. Let the air out him.
I think the tail’s too white for a blacktail?!
Homeland security informed me that he’s a threat, so take em’ out!
thats not a blacktail thats a muledeer and that deer is not 13 to 14 years old you dont no what your takin about
that would be a huge black-tail, record type. that is a classic middle aged muley who doesnt have great genes. (not real wide, and browtines…)

That’s gotta be a book cliffs deer. Crab forks and no brow tine’s are super typical there. Great area though.
