I bet he doesn't have any teeth left, man I really hope you get him and have a biologist age him, that is a serious trophy old buck (and biggest fork horn I have seen too).

He will go on the wall if I am lucky enough to kill him. Not the greatest horns but is the oldest deer I have ever seen and the best trophy ever in terms of years.

Not the greatest horns but is the oldest deer I have ever seen and the best trophy ever in terms of years. yes sir I'd have him on the wall if he was a spike. and make sure that taxidermist properly replicated the neck/chest on that monster. heck if I had money to throw away I'd get a full body mount, if he is 7.5+ like it seems he is

That buck is so old, only cementum annuli would be able to give you an accurate age. Toothwear is only good for aging up to around 5 or 6.
