Guessing these to both be three year olds. A friend disagrees. Carroll county, MO.

Flip a coin. Could be 3,5,7, or 9.

4 or over I think they would have more mass. The body of the one on the beans is thick though.

They're both very nice deer, but I dont think a person could accurately judge their age until they're "necked up" and out of velvet. That said, based on their straight back line and the depth of their chests I think theyre probably 3, and very nice 3 yr olds at that.

Matt,
Evan and Katie are coming, that’s about all the pressure my 120 can take without educating the deer. God willing, next year though after our bear hunt.

Ha i was joking Frank, but maybe next year might work They are beautiful deer either way. Hopefully you guys can get a crack at one or both. I know alot of guys would be happy with either, and quite a few would be their biggest. You will have a great season and lots of fun regardless!
