No Nads Buck

This deer was still in velvet on Dec 16th. It had either lost its nads at an early age or they never really formed well. Only had 1 and it was not even fully droped. The deer also had a wound to the front leg. How old do yall think it is? Sorry for the poor picture quality I had the camera set on the wrong setting.

Johnathan, Mark and Spence on the first hunt in 6 years were they could all get together. Two sat in stands while the other one walked some planted pines. They pushed this buck still in velvet past Johnathan. He was shooting buck shot and only 2 pellets hit the deer. 1 in the neck the other in the leg. They were able to track the deer about 100 yards past were the deer was shot. At this point they lost the track. The deer had been traveling in a straight line and they tried to pick up the trail out in front of them but could not. Baby tracked right up to their point of loss and then started a turn to the left. We went another 150-200 yards eventually turning completly in the opposite direction and then found the deer.

No wants to guess as to the age. Deer probably dresses out at 130-140 and I am guessing 4 1/2 years old. He had lots of wear on his bicusped's (teeth).
