    Need a little help

    This deer has me going back and forth on age. I don't care about score so much, just don't want to shoot a deer that is younger than I think he is. I am interested to hear the green screen's opinions on his age.

        5.5. Throw the 2nd picture out, he is slightly stretched and walking giving him slimmer look.

          ^^^ That is a good point, I didn't think about that making him look a little thinner there.

            3.5 yr old, neck is slim and not attached to the lower brisket, front shoulders are small in comparison to back shoulders, little to no pot belly and no swayed back. 3.5

                I am trying to decide if he is the same deer as I have pictured below from last year. These pictures were taken in late October and early November of last year, whereas the ones above were taken late August of this year. If it is the same deer, then he is likely 5.5+ this year in my opinion. What do you think?

                  The brow tines have similar characteristics. And the frame is similar. Very well could be the same buck.

                    looks like same buck. Velvet pics are very hard to age on.

                    With last years hard horned pics I am going with 5.5 this year.

                    Please post 2015 hard horned pics

                      I've had some trouble with my cameras this year, but they are all working as of Monday afternoon. I will walk in tomorrow around lunch to pull cards and post any pics I have of him from this week.

                      You can see the ends of his main beams are thick in last year's pictures. The velvet daytime pic from this year you can see his right main beam is really thick but his left main beam formed another tine this year, making him a 9 pt. I agree that the brow tines are very similar.
