Looks older than 4 but I am thinking it due to the way he is standing. So I will say 4 also.
Are idiots multiplying faster than normal people?

Panels are upside down. I would guess 4-5 too, but would would help to see the head.

Yes! A Weatherby does kill them deader.

I'm new to this aging on the hoof stuff, but I think he is definitely mature. In my inexperienced opinion I'm going to say 5.

The broadside deer and the one with his rear pointing toward the camera look full bodied. At least 4.5s. Once they hit 4.5 it's hard to tell how old they are.

Looks 4-5 to me.
Buck in the very back looks to have some age on him for sure!
High fence, low fence, no fence, it really doesn't matter as long as you're hunting!

4 and agree that flipping panels would be a good idea. Nice size feed pen though.

I'm with the 4 crowd. He looks late 4 to early 5 but my gut is telling me he's a strong 4.

11.5 but that's just a guess, an educated guess, but a guess nevertheless

11.5 but that's just a guess, an educated guess, but a guess nevertheless : You could be on to something - His legs do look frail and gimpy. I am changing my original guess of 4-5 to a new guess of 11.33-11.67.
