3.5-4.5 and low 120s is about right.

3.5 or 4.5, but I can't get this deer over 110" maybe closer to 105"

I'd say your pretty close. The age is hard this time of year. He could be 3.5, 4.5, or possibly even 5.5. My bet is 4.5

He may be older than 4.5 but either way I'd take him! He isn't going to get much better than what he's got!
Thursday at 12:45 PM #33 Once i learned that i didn't "NEED" to kill something, and that if i did kill something all the fun stopped and work began, i was a much better hunter.

I don't think that buck gets past the low 110s, but I think you're right on age.

I don't think he'll go 120. Age looks good

I think he'll be a little under 120 but 4.5 is probably right

He may be older than 4.5 with that roman nose, pot belly, swayed back, sagging chin, and he is clearly bigger in the chest area than any of the deer in the picture. I'm saying 5.5+ and I'd take him because I doubt he will get much bigger horns than he already has.

Thanks for the feed back fellas! I've seen this deer in person and he's clearly bigger than any of the other bucks he runs with and has the attitude to back it up!

Agree with the fellas, he is old enough to have more headgear, I'd take him out of the herd.

Id say your in the ball park. Like someone else said, this time of year is tuff on aging. Also not every deer is going to age the same. Some are feed hounds and are rolly polly their whole lives some are long and lean etc.
