What are your thoughts on the age of this one? I believe he is mature and rutted down. I am saying 5.5+. What do you think?

Definitely rutted down. 4 or 5. Hard to tell without any history or area of the state.

Post mature. Reverting to a childlike appearance in most recent photos. Not much muscle tone. Choot him if you like him, and still can!

Well I was afraid he was older. I missed my chance on him this season. I thought he'd make a cool euro.

Maybe he will maintain that frame this year too! Very very cool deer!

He's probably not 8.5 but he is an old deer I believe. I really like how he's bladed all over. The more I look at him the more I like him! Have you seen him in prior years?

Life is too short, as is. Don't chance it.
Don't text and drive.

Yeah, I'd like to change my guess after seeing those second set of pics. He's old.

Hard rutted down 5.5 year old. He will be almost identical next year. He bred a lot of does this year. He is not as old as you think. Only way to know is his teeth, and that would eliminate him. He is very tired and drained. Protein him.
