Default How old?

What you think the ages are on these bucks and what you think they would score? I passed the third one opening morning b/c the first one was consistently showing up. Sadly he didn't show during the season at all .. the second one was during rut and passing through, but it was biggest one I have a picture of.

Im hoping i can find some sheds from these deer. No one around shot any of these so there is still a chance that one might've made it. I wasn't able to keep my camera up b/c this spot was right a snowmobile trail and i obviously didn't wanna get it ripped off. But as soon as the trails are closed for good it'll be up looking for the big birds and then hopin to see one of these deer come summer time after turkey season!!!

I am going to agree here. The face on the middle one looks like he is really old but he has the body of a younger deer. He is a very nice looking deer.

2nd pick is awsome. For those that think his body is young, I see at stout buck that in the 1st week of November is losing weight ruttin hard.
