Looked at this earlier today and it's been bothering me ever since. As for score, I'd say 141 after velvet. Age, I'm not certain but think he's bodily mature (4+). Never seen a belly like that on a whitetail. At any time of year. I'm no expert or veterinarian, just a layman with an interest in deer and habitat management.
The buck looks perfectly healthy, aside from his swollen gut on his left side. I'd kill him as soon as is legal.

Thanks again guys for your input---I appreciate it! He is definitely the biggest I have ever gone after and I plan on doing a shoulder mount if I get him. After my wife saw him she said "oh here we go...you are going to be hunting all the time!" Lol. if I get him I will post an update with pics, jaw age and score.

Good deer. Don't let score be a factor. If you like him (he's very likable), shoot him at the first chance. Not a lot of deer in Hardin county walk around in the day time.

Sometimes it's hard being me! But somebody has to do it.
