I am thinking between 3.5 and 4.5, some pics he looks a little older some younger. Either way, it appears he will be a wide 6 this year. If he walks out, I may zap him...



Him on the left:




Wish I had more color shots of him, that seems to be my problem, getting deer to show during daylight.

I think your guess of 3.5 is pretty close. Neck seems too slender to be much older than that.

Mature IMO, neck will not be muscled at all in the summer since there is no reason for it to be. He just has that look of a mature deer. Width in the brisket area inbetween the front shoulders, starting to callus his knees, ears are scarred/notched from fighting in the years past, thick body line, and his leg do not look to long for his body, they are starting to look shorter.

Older than 3.5, but younger than 12.

Too old to have 6 points.

I think he's an old deer on the decline. They usually start growing high brow tines, shorter main beams and less points when they start to decline.

Another vote for mature here. I'll give him 18 inches on the spread.

I'd say older, 6.5 with 19" or so spread

Definitely mature IMO and 19" is a good guess on width.

Shooter.

Looks like 4.5 bc his outside tines look like they are close to his nose

He looks like freezer material to me.
