Hard to say from one pic. What area was it shot? I would say it is at least 3 years old.

Nice buck!
For me it's harder to tell from kill pictures but guess either 2.5 or 3.5...

3.5 would be my guess.
You can fool some of the bucks, all of the time, and fool all of the bucks, some of the time, however you certainly can't fool all of the bucks, all of the time.

Really hard to tell on a pic of a gutted deer laying down. The antlers say he should be 3 1/2 but can be real deceiving. Kinda need a broadside shot of him on the hoof to tell.

Nice buck.

Leaning towards 3.5 just based on the pic, but would not be surprised at all if he is older.

I bow hunt Crawford county every year, pretty sure that is close to Warren...?
