Congrads!! Your buck is either a good 2.5 year old or a inferior 3.5 year old.
Its hard for me to tell which one since the buck is field dressed and not standing etc. But if I had to pic one, I would say your buck is 2.5 years of age. Pike

I would say he was 2.5 years old. He looks like he has about an 17 inch inside spread and I would guess he weighed around 150.

LOL! Some of you guys crack me up.... 3 or 4 year old buck.... are you kidding ?!?

No way, clearly a 2 1/2 year old immature buck. You can tell by the smallish undeveloped body and facial features. Also the overall lack of mass and small smooth bases are almost dead give aways that the animal is nowhere near maturity.
