I haven't seen anything in any of the pics that make me think that buck is older than 3.5. IMO, your buddy made the right call in letting him walk. I don't quite see 150 though, maybe mid to upper 140's, but next year he could be pushing 160 assuming decent rain fall this spring/summer. Good luck, I hope you start getting pics of him this next August and will be pleasantly surprised.

Old buck. I see it in his face, his calloused knees. They revert back to looking young again, but they do leave a few clues to follow. Explains his shedding early and lack of tarsal staining. Younger, more dominant bucks doing the breeding. This guy just hanging with hogs eating some corn and taking it easy. I bet he is very docile in his old age. Garguy shot a very old buck this year that looked young, go look at his thread for another example of this.
