Personally, I have no confidence in my ability to estimate the age of a buck this time of year, especially from trail cam photos. When November gets here I feel much better about it.
For example, check out the buck below and date stamps. Assuming it is the same deer, and it sure looks like it is, I would say he has been 3.5 years old for the last five years.
I totally agree on aging deer in the velvet pretty tough for me. Mid octoberish it gets easier in my opinion. In the velvet, Its just a matter of being mature or immature for me.

There are quite a few birds, but it is spotty on location. I limited out Saturday and Sunday evening, both well before dark. Went back Monday and it was pretty dead. Called it quits after 5 birds. Drove about a mile or two down the road and they were everywhere though. Hunting is good if you are in the right spot.

Well did our first real card pull of season, looking pretty good. One of the ones we wanted to see was still there. He will get a pass one more year, hopefully makes it been on our place the last 3 years.
Should be a 4.5 year old. Anyone venture where he score now. Can't find a pic from last year right now but he has grown considerably each year. Hoping he will balloon next year in to something really nice.

There are a bunch of birds around, but couldn't seem to pattern them. We had a good day on Saturday then Sunday was pretty dead.
