Judging by body characteristics it looks to be a 3.5 year old.

For Illinois that would be a definite 2.5 year old.

There is no way I see that deer being 3 1/2 years old unless the feed and/or genetics in your area are real poor. He has a sleek body and his rack is pretty thin. I'd peg him at a year and a half if you are in a good feed area, otherwise I'm saying 2 1/2.

Hes definately older than 1 1/2. I vote 2 1/2.

Looks like a 2 to 3 year old deer from the looks but I'm in Ohio, so thats how I am comparing him to some of mine.

Not so definate for me. I've seen my shareof 1.5 year olds taken down that had similar racks and body size asthat buck. It all depends on the food availability and genetics IMHO.
