Age?

This 12pt showed up on the game cam last week. Pretty deer. Doesn't appear to have much mass or be really wide. I'm thinking 3.5. What say you? Sterling County, low fence, no protein. Thanks!

Another angle.

Older, 5 or so. Roman nose, brisket meeting neck, etc

Hard to say from those two photos.

4-1/2

I would say 5, he will fill out quick and look older

5-6 seems to be the jump when they put on mass

Nice buck!

4-5 years old.

5

at least 4.5, most likely older.

5 yr old and with more pics I might say even older. Lot of brisket and neck for just out of velvet. Young bucks can have a "roman nose"....that look is from a broken nose from fighting not age.

Thanks for all the replies! Guess I was looking at the antlers and not the body enough. I'll post updated pics if he continues to show up on the game cam.
