Bales' Hancock county buck

Postby coonman » Sun Jan 13, 2008 12:57 pm

This deer has been eating a ton of Pine Cones and Briars.
He is pulling his jaw bone today we will see how old he is my guess is 6.5

Great deer, but no way, in my opinion, he's 6.5 years old. Let us know when you find out for sure.

I would say 3.5. No way he's past 4.5 years old.

Bales heard back from the Biologist and the deer aged out at 6.5.

gotta be the biggest deer killed out of Hancock County in years, reminds me of some kiled out of the Crumps property yrs ago....truly a studd for South MS, thats surely equivalent to killing a 170-175 class, in the Hills, Delta, or Praire.. there just aint many deer down here this size...hey Bales pm me, I d like to know where you killed that mule, curiosity is killing me.. Bayou Bacon, Tony Island? Id think somewhere close to NASA... dont worry I havent deer hunted in Hancock County in 15yrs...
