Default How wide and old?

Can you guys give me your opions on how old and how wide this buck is. This picture was taken on July 4th so he is still growing. I have pics of him from june 14th and he grown alot since then. I don't think he will get any wider but I hope his tines lengthen. Your opions please. Thanks.

The anters are way past the tips of the bucks ears (15 inches approx.) so I would say he has a good 22 in spread. Looks like a 3.5 also. He will probably have shorter tines since he is so wide.

That buck is 4 years old if not a little older, I bet he scores in the 145's to 150 class. His body mass is really good and his chest is full even for summer.

18" are you kidding? This guy will go at least 22", but won't score over 140 due to the short tines. About a 3.5 y.o.. A nice buck by all means.

not very good at telling age but it does look like an old deer, and it will easily make a 20-22" spread, scoring anywhere in the 120s to 140s unless hs tines lengthen up. if his tines shoot on up there he'll be pushing 150 or maybe even 160 IMO.
