Nice looking buck. He looks to be either 3 or 4 yr old in those pics. He has a very thick neck and shoulder area for a 3 yr old.
Are idiots multiplying faster than normal people?

The only pics he looks 4.5 to me is the 2 and the last one. It definitely took everything I had, and some convincing from my brother not to shoot

I don't think you can ever go wrong by letting one walk another year, especially if you're not certain. Hopefully your patience will pay off next year.

Good choice. He is growing healthy and will definately add to your herd if you help keep him walking. Merry Christmas.

Nice buck... You did the right thing by letting him walk. If you and your brother are after killing Big bucks you need to let them grow. IMO... If you have to think about if a buck is big enough, he's not. When you have the right buck step out you won't even need to think about it... You will know!!!
