I would have to guess on the score because I am not good at scoring but I would say 135"-140". As for age, I am going to say 3.5 to 4.5 but it is tough with the night pictures. I like to look at the color in their face as well as the sagging belly and back.  :dunno:

Yeah, too bad you couldn't see his head details better (like his eyes). His body isn't real thick, I'm with these guys at 3.5 or 4.5 at best.

I don't have any good daytime pics of him so those wont help. I'm hoping he shows back up on my cam this year. I to was thinking he is 3 1/2 or 4 1/2  :dunno:

 Those pics were taken last year if the date stamp is correct. I would guess 140" tops and 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 years old. Nice buck. I have one similiar on my wall that goes 145" (sheds I found while turkey hunting) just estimating the width.
