I wouldn't put him younger than 4.5 he looks like he has been hitting it hard. ~ 150"

Are these pics recent? He looks like a rutted down buck that is in the 4-5 yo age class to me. Very stained hocks and thick folds on the shoulder suggest age. but his lean body suiggests he has been running a lot lately.

Score is hard to tell form the pics as I have no idea of width and it seems the left brow is missing? And it looks in one pic that he has 4 on the left and in one pic it looks to be just three, but basing it off the bottom it appears he is a 3x5? too much extra reflection to judge score well. Just a wag score would be 115-120ish??

My uneducated guess...high 130's to mid 140's. 4.5 years old.

5 yr old and 147 give or take a bit depending on spread from those pics as a 10 pt.

I see an 8 pt buck there...3 left and 5 right. Am I missing something or is that all he has?

Just for kicks and grins, with a 3x5, the third and fourth mass measurement would be the same measurement after the g2 on the 3 side correct? Or do you only do four mass measurements if you have enough tines to make a fourth?

Those are recent pics. He’s a 10. His left G4 is probably 1 1/2” shorter than his right. He’s right around 16” wide. His brow tines are about 3 1/2” and 4 1/2”.

Here’s a couple more pics
