Going through this fall's trail cam pics, I once again pondered this buck's age. Relative to a number of two year olds we have running around, his actual body size is not impressive. Still, his body shape screams out old age to me. Thoughts? FYI, this upstate NY property has mixed genetics, some decent, and some very poor. My guess is this is an old poor genetic buck.

for September that body looks big and blocky, especially at the base of the neck where it meets body. Ignoring the horns, I'd say 4yrs for NY

I concur. 4yrs or older.

Hard to say with that pic, I would need to see more of him. I would agree with the others on his age, he looks older than 4 but then again, he might just be big boned and stout:) do you have any pics of him with a doe?

No other pics although I've seen him a number of times. He is not a big bodied deer--I believe he is 4+ but small in stature. We passed him during archery season--which with hindsight was a mistake.
