I’ve got tons of pictures of this one. I’m thinking 2.5-3 year old. Would love to see him get a little older, but doubt anyone on a neighboring property would pass. Thoughts?

Most all would agree its very hard to age and takes a lot of practice to even get decent, IMO. Its probably better to hedge a little to younger but depends on everyones goals and mindset also. Its really hard for me to tell in pics like that but I would probably go with the majority and say at least 4.

I completely agree....if not 5.5.

High fence, low fence, no fence, it really doesn't matter as long as you're hunting!

From the broadside I would say 5.5. Looks younger facing camera but looking at his body broadside, my best guess is 5.5.

I'd guess 4.5. I'd guess Deer are like people, some look older, some look younger.

Thanks, Billy
