This buck showed up this summer. I keep pretty tight tabs on the bucks using the property and I cannot pin this deer down. I think he's new. Got a pretty solid estimate on age based on how all the other bucks in the area age, but figured I'd ask yall too.

Tricky guessing ages in September from a single pic.
Certainly looks 4 1/2 or older.
Could easily be 5 1/2 or older.

I am confident saying he is 3.5 or older. From just that one pic don't think I would put him past 4.5 though.
4.5 at least

4.5+ min that guts starting to sag.
Couple more from yesterday morning. I think I'll hunt him.

Looking at pictures on these little phones can make it tough sometimes to really tell. That second pic is a really good one to gauge the deer from though, makes me think 4.5+. Good luck on him.
Yessir I agree. Saggy neck & pronounced brisket make me think he's 4.5. He could be older but I don't have any history to know. But I don't think he's any younger.

When he fills out he's going to look like a horse
