nice buck but he is only a 3 year old
he needs another 3 years and he will be a fantastic buck
give us some background....high fence/low fence, acreage you are hunting on, county, etc.
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

I'd say he's 4 or older and is all over 140. Hill Country deer tend to keep that long lanky body

I would call that 5 yr old buck. I see 156-158 on the deer. Deer is to thick in the shoulders and brisket area to be any younger IMO. Great looking buck. Post up pics of jawbones.
Are idiots multiplying faster than normal people?

I wouldn't call him three in a half this early in the season. He hasn't been out of velvet long.
I bet in another days when he swells up it will be an easy 5.5 call. If he is a protein hound maybe 4.5 but not 3.5 for sure

Doubt he is only 3.5. The belly and a brisket are definitely not typical of a 3.5 year old deer, especially in the hill country.
4.5-5.5 IMO.
150"ish (forgot about the splits when scoring)
Great deer.
