Only pic I have of him. No history of this deer either. Looks 5.5 at least to me. What do you guys think?

I think you should have been in your stand and he should be dead on the ground. Nice buck!!

Beautiful buck. Hard to judge age from that one pic but he's fully mature.

Ya, I'm usually lazy and wait until I have to change the batteries before resetting the time.

I'd put him 5.5-6.5, and very nice scorewise..Hard to tell definitively since can't tell number of points, what not but looks like a great frame to him..

Yeah I wish I would have been. Hopefully the next time he passes by I will be in there! aim

Heavy bodied, barrel chested, low hanging brisket....he looks mature to me.

Yeah I wish he would have stopped and ate for a while so I could get a couple more pics of him. Probably just sent checking.

I would agree with you 5 from that one pic. Neck does not fit the 5 yr old body he has.

Not with that size and shape of body. Just neck or way has it turned in a relaxed pose does not fit the body size/age. I would still shoot him on my place. up

I'm thinking 4.5...those kind of pics and night time pics always make them look a year older..IMO

Looking at the body I'd call him fully mature. Love the frame. Wish you luck ground checking him. up
