I will dance a jig if he makes it to 185" and post it on here for everyone to see. I think he will be in the 170's though.

With the added pics showing the 3 other points I will say low to mid 170's. I will dance a jig if he makes it to 185" and post it on here for everyone to see. I think he will be in the 170's though. 181 3/16 
Are idiots multiplying faster than normal people?

I know you already posted your thoughts on his age, but I thought he was older due to some of his body, facial, and posturing features, and was leaning towards a 6-6.5 Y/O buck. If you pass on this deer and hope the neighbor's do the same in hopes of seeing him next year I salute you for you have the patience of Job. If I could get an arrow in a buck like that I would have an irremovable smile!
