As always it depends. Where are you hunting? What are you wanting to accomplish where you hunt? What is his age estimate as you cannot tell from pics without full body. If you are on a small property surrounded by other hunters who will take him that has to be considered. If on large property being managed then depending on age he should maybe walk. Beautiful deer My thoughts exactly on a couple leases id shoot him without hesitation ,on a couple other places i may let him walk , and dont forget and im not trying to take away from him at all cause he is a dang nice deer but the look in velvet always looks more heavy I think tine length is going to trump any mass issues he may have 
If I send my neighbors a text and ask them to give me feedback on my lawn and plant rye into a giant dong pattern, I'm probably going to get some less than positive feedback. Same goes here.

The buck is a Midwest deer......the deer will surprise most what it will score. The deer is 7 plus years old. He will get shot in a heart beat.

If he is a 7 year old, 170" free range Midwest whitetail buck, the question shouldn't be should you kill him, it's can you kill him?
How come everybody I meet is a deer hunting expert?

No, I would wait until he dies of natural causes or a neighbor shoots him.

"It is the same boiling water that softens the rice, which hardens the egg." It's not always about the circumstances, but what you are made of....
