Still young. Looks like he will be 3 1/2 this Fall. He is on his way to being a giant at 5 1/2.

I'd say he is at least a 4 yr old. Kinda tough to say for sure but with his body characteristics, I would call him 4 at my place.

I really felt like he was 2.5 last season since he was so small body wise compared to the others but I'm better at scoring them than guessing their age. I would really like to let him walk another season but I doubt I could get the others to agree to it. They feel once they reach 4 yrs of age they are mature and earn a spot on the shooters list.
Don't let me get pics of you slipping around with that bow Narvie.

Haha you know a camera just breaks if it takes my pic., so not worried!!! He may be a 3 year old this year. I've been wrong many times on age. I've seen deer at the WMA you just knew were 3 or 4 and they end up a 2 year old! I've also seen deer up there you thought were 2 and they end up 4 or 5! Who knows if he walks by the right person he's getting stuck.

Tough one. Originally I thought last years picture was 3.5 considering how far his neck merged into his body and his tarsals were not dark indicating this was not during rut. I was leaning hard towards 4.5 this year seeing that his legs look proportionate to his body. The body posture isn't ideal for aging but I'm not seeing a wedge face. I'm changing my mind to 3\3.5 this year. I also feel this way that his belly and brisket are tight and if I were to imagine him standing in a good posture, I don't expect him to have the "bull dog" appearance.

Actually the first two pics were taken in the middle of the rut. His tarsals never really got that dark.
