Age??

Mortenson

5 year old buck +
Big bucks are thus far pretty slim pickins this year. This deer has been coming around, and I either have no history with him, or I can't figure out yet who he is. I can't tell if he already broke off the end of his right main beam or if it's just a weird layout where it curls up with the G4. How do you experts age this guy? He's the only shooter I have on camera, but I'm still hoping at least 2 others from last year roll around.

No expert but I see 4+ In the daytime picture.
 
I'm with Bill.
 
I’m going with 4 also. Nice looking buck for sure!
 
Nice Mort! Id also say 4. And I dont think hes broke... just looks like a tight curl at the end. Maybe has dried velvet or something too to discolor it?

Good looking buck!
 
I say 4 all day long, and beautiful deer too.....
 
Very nice buck! Likely 4 or older I’d say.

Thanks guys. Been hoping to see this buck but no sign of him since these pics. I have a few cams that I haven't checked however. Think I've hunted 8 or 9 times so far and haven't seen a buck older than 1.5 yrs. Absolutely the worst bow season of my life.
