Aging is next to impossible but the midsection to me, shows some age. if he is old, cull him before he has a chance to breed anymore. That screams of management buck.

I'll play. That is definitely a mature buck, despite the headgear not being great. Here is my hunch: given the deep brickekt and paunch, heavy body plus what looks like fat pockes on his underside, etc. I think it's possible this buck may already be past his prime, which means he could be as old as 7.5 or more. I love to see that one aged after you shoot him.

And then I could be completely out in left field. i.e.He could be just 4.5. I sure don't think he could be any younger than that.

I would agree...mature and I would guess 5.5 to 6.5. Interesting rack.

No more than 5-1/2... I don't see the "Roman Nose" or the "Sway Back". If I had actual Dimensions of Hoof Size or If one of you Rascal's could hold him while I look at his teeth... I could tell ya..

This buck is what most trohpy establishments call a management buck. They dont want this guy breeding their does. Regardless of if he is 4.5 or 7.5 he is a shooter and needs to be eliminated. In a trohpy setting that piece of headgear should betting sitting on top of a 3.5 year old buck, this guy is definately older than that.
