Id say a second season buck. Antlers are no indication of age. Antlers are an indication of nutrition and genetics.

Healthy 1.5. His lack of definable muscle gives him away. They will really start to show more muscle in both front and rear quarters as they age. At 1.5 he could still be showing signs that he was born early and is a shade older than the rest of his generation. That won't be noticable next year but it can still have a slight effect at this age. He has definately been well fed. He should be dandy in a few years.
