I would say that deer #1 is 2 1/2 years old, probably scores 115, deer #2 is 3 1/2, and probably scores 125, deer #3 is also 3 1/2 and probably scores 120. Depending on the kind and amount of food and minerals they get between now and this fall,I would say that they will put on between 10 and 25" of antler.

1. 2.5 years old 99"

2. 3.5 years old 122"

3. 3.5 years old 124"

They are all 3 some fine PA bucks. Hopefully they made it through this year. Number 2 and 3 should be whoppers if they did.

I always try to do these without looking at what everyone else says.....so....

1. I think this deer is 2.5 yrs old and I estimate him at 122".

2. I estimate this one at 3.5 yrs and 139" GREAT BROWS!

3. Estimate at 4.5yrs (may be older) and 144"

Complete novice at the game.

I think everyone agrees on #1 he's young 2 1/2 and 110-120

I think #2 is young too. Either 2.5 or maybe 3.5 I'd guess him at 130ish I shot a 20 inch wide 10 point this year that scored 153 this buck isn't even close in mass and is only a 8 point. He'll be real nice next year.

#3 is the oldest IMO he has much more mass probably 4.5 and around 125-130

but thats just my opinion ...whatever thats worth.

1st deer is not mature. 2.5 and under 100"

2nd deer probably 3.5 and 118-122"

3rd deer also probably 3.5, maybe older and also around 120"

I'm noticing that none of the PA guys think any of the deer are over 3.5. I'm in agreement with that.

Thanks guys I really appreciate all the feedback im writing down all the responses and I plan to put it into excel soon. There seems to be a general consensus that the first buck is 2.5, unfortunatelyI have to disagree with you guys...the picture was taken a couple hundred yards from my house and he's been hanging around for two years now. Im posting the pic of him last year and this (im 98% sure its him, double white patch). He added alot on his right side from a 4-inch G2, and a 1-inch G3 last year.

Sure does look like the same buck........funny you caught him both times with his mouth open?
Is he smiling for the camera? :D

Heres a pic of some 1.5s from the same area to give you guys an idea. IMO the other bucks were 3.5, 4.5 and 4.5 respectively.

LOL same expression on his face in the two pics. If it ain't the same deer I'd be supprized. If you shoot him you have to get him mounted like that LOL:D

#1 - about 90-95" max, and only a 2.5yo deer.

#2 - is a much nicer deer, looks to be about 130'ish, nice looking 3.5, maybe a 4.5, but I think he's more 3.5 looking.

#3 - Unless I'm missing something, I think he's not nearly as big as some of you guys are thinking. Giving him a generous 16" inside and 22" beams, I'm only hitting about 123 for him. His MASS really isn't THAT great, and keep in mind that last measurement is going to be pretty weak halfway to the tip from his G3. But he does look older, I believe he MAY be a 4.5 yo deer.

#1. I would say around 90"-95". His tines aren't very long, I would say that his G-2's are around 5" and his mass isnt that great. It wouldn't suprise me at all if he was 2.5 yo. The body isn't huge on him and he doesn't have a pot belly going yet.

#2. I would say right around 123". He has a great spread, but his tines aren't super long. His G-2's appear to be 7" tops, and yet again, not alot of mass. As far as age, the picture is very hard to judge. He doesn't look very bulky, esspecially for being right before the rut. I would have to say a 3.5 yo.

#3. I would say right around 128". He has good G-2 length and nice G-3 length but his brows are a little short. Long main beams and decent mass. His body is pretty big, and I would guess him to be a 4.5 years old (yet again, very hard picture to judge)
