Hey Salty, how old do think that buck is?

Initially we thought he was a 3.5yo due to his weight being 165. However a Vet friend of mine said the mass on the side of his head is a abcessed molar and was keeping him from eating like he probably should have been. So he might have been older. The Taxidermist is pulling the jawbone for me so that we can age him for sure. I wouldn't think more than 4.5 though.
I got a double drop tine non-typical that's at least 4.5-5.5 yo on another piece of property I need to target soon. Won't get but one or two chances at him or he'll live in the swamp and move only at night.
