Need Help Aging This Buck

[MikeW_Conroe]

Hello,
What are you thought on age of this buck?
My guess is 4 years so I have given him a 'pass' twice this season.
As season is winding down wanted to double check my guess with you so I am not missing opportunity to kill him if he is actually older than 4.
Thanks,
Mike

Difficult with those pics. Id say 4.5-5.5 tho

I'd say 4.4 basic 8 if you have plenty of deer take him out typical 4.5 8 pointer

4.5....I would take him out on my place.

Unless you just need the extra meat he should get bigger.

4.5

Leave him alone. Already has decent mass and length. The nub on the right side should likely make him a 9 next season.

I had one very similar to him last year. As a 4 year old 8, he would have scored 128-130. As a 5 year old 9, he scored 146.
