Give me your thoughts on this buck, age-wise.

I have no past history with him.

My guessestimate is 3.5. Outside chance 4.5, not likely but i'd guess 4.5 over 2.5 if they were the only two choices

I've never seen a 2.5 yr old deer with that kind of body. If you showed me that deer with the headgear blurred or removed....I'd say 3.5. I still will. No back sway to him....but he's a deep bodied deer. I'll say 3.5.

I'm guessing 3 1/2. Too big of a body for a 2 1/2, not saggy enough belly for a 4 1/2. JMO.
