Nice buck. I'm going to say 2 1/2 based on the nose and body

Seems to me it could be pretty subjective but they always found the big bucks just by their tracks so i figure they must be a little something to it. Its really interesting stuff, i will have to see if i can dig it up.
i agree, tracks will tell an older buck from a younger one, but how they or you can tell a 3 and a 1/2 year old from a 4 and a 1/2 year old is beyond me
