Just wanting to get opinions cause I know what I think, but y’all help me out and give me your expert opinions on aging this deer. And NO I don’t know how old it is, just guessing based on the pic.

Terrible angle to age a deer from. But with that said I would go with not real old using only the legs as a gauge. Looks long legged, old bucks don't have that look.

Ok, lets try this then…was trying to avoid showing antlers, didn’t want them swaying guesses.

Body does not look mature, rack would be typical of a great 3.5 or good 4.5 in our area.
If he really is young, you have a great program.

I agree with him having the body/general first glance appearance of a 2.5 yr old, but there's something about his rangy-ness that says he is much older....maybe 6.5+.

If that is only his 2nd set of antlers...then that is impressive even for Worth County.
