Default How old do you think this buck is?

Hey guys,

Wondering if someone can give me an approximate age of this guy? I'm not very good at it unless I see them in person. Here is a few videos of him from a couple different nights.

Thanks in advance.

I think you need to sort of give location(as where a deer lives can make a difference in body size, which changes how some will look at it and guess)
don'
t need exact details or like, just maybe what state or providence!

to me I say he is either a VERY good 2.5 yr old or 3.5+ again pending where its at!

Thanks mrbb, I live in Ontario Canada. This guy has been coming to my backyard for a few months now.

Thanks.

Here, that'd be a 2 1/2 year old. Good sweep to the antlers, but not much mass. I'm guessing it would be similar in Ont.
