Did you pull the lower jaw bone? I'm guessing 3.5 years old. I'm not experienced at aging but based off months of reading other guesses at deer on this forum I'll say 125. Body weight 185.

Back is straight, legs look proportionate To his body, belly doesn't look like its sagging. His neck merger makes me think 4.5 but I'll take 3.5. His body looks big I wanted to guess closer to 200 but stuck with 185 since I think he's 3.5 years old. I know the rack is a poor method to age deer but bucks more often than not will be to or outside the ears when 4.5 or older. His spread looks inside, especially since his ears are pinned back. Nice harvest- what time of day and was he in the pines, hardwoods, or a food source?

I say 4.5 yr old. WOuldn't be surprised if you told me 5.

I say 115-120" I wouldn't try to nail him down from that picture.

Looks maybe 170 lbs or so. I am not good at guessing weight. But he doesn't appear to be gigantic body wise.

That's what I call a freezer full of meat and some Big Antlers to go with it.
