Looks middle-aged from that one not-so-good pic. For his age he looks to be a great buck. Double-white throat patch makes him easier to find and track for history.

He's older than he looks in the first pic IMO. I the double throat patch at first glance, nice buck.
Never been to a camping world. I prefer Dick's to be honest.

This mf 8 my BIL has in front of him has some length. I think the over/under on the 10 is 150, 5.5, and id take the over on score. Hes difficult to age. He let me study him for a good half hour this morning.

Pretty sure this is him last yr. we thought he was 4.5 or 5.5 last year. When I first clicked on the thread and saw the pic I said 5 due to neck/face then looked at what I could see of the body and said more 4. Neck shows more but can't see enough of his flank area do the the Fort Knox fence post feed legs. As far as score, I just said 90" for MB, mass and spread from what I could see in a straight on pic and then 53" on tine length. I would have shot the 8 with matching kickers over the 10 pt any day though.

The power of more pictures. That shows him much better. He has a pot-gut in those pics but the same thing that threw in the first pics and these is the lack of larger round stained hock. It looks more like that of a 4 yr old buck in South Texas than a 5 yr or older buck even for this time of the year. Those pics show his tine length much better. I think your guess of 150 is very close from those pics.

I think your guess of 150 is very close from those pics. We didn't see him until late in the rut last year, and we were thinking 4 or 5 then. I guess its possible he was 3. I think he's 5 tops based on my weekend observations, so he's earned a pass from me this year.
