Help Me Age This Buck....

Looking for some input about Lump Jaw's age.... My boyfriend thinks he is maybe 4... I am thinking anywhere between 6-7.. He shows the signs of a mature buck.....

What do you think? Thanks!

I'll go in between and say 5. Sure is a big deer.

Always listen to your boyfriend lol. I'd say 4-5 would be a good guess. Got any good daylight pics, I find ir pics can make their bodies look bigger than what they are.

I'm gonna go with 5-6

LMAO!! Sodbuster... This buck is pretty much nocturnal. I have only gotten 4 pictures of him during the day.. It was a series of pics... It was pretty recent too!! It isn't the greatest pic, but is does show how big his body mass is.... Even from a distance....

Do you have any pictures of him with his hat?

Nan, here is a picture of him with his "hat".....

That pic does have more of the sway back and potbelly look, could be 6. He's definitely mature which makes him a trophy in my book.

He could be a really old buck that is going down hill, but his belly isnt sagging down.

Thanks for the pic. Did you ever find his sheds?

Nope never did.... I just recently found out what area he beds down in.... I am going to investigate it a little further. He is a hit or miss buck. There are times where I won't see him for a month... then all of a sudden, I will get pics of him almost every day. With the bushnell set, I got pics of him every day. Walking through..... I believe he is hanging somewhere around there.....
