...he very well might be an ol timer going downhill.
Unless we have multiple versions of this buck running around, he's been around for a while. In 2006, I would say he was in his prime. A good 23-24" wide, big forks and tall brow tines. He looked like a mule deer back then. I would say he was at least 3.5 then. So he could be 6.5 yo.
