Any idea on age on the bigger one? Im thinking 3-4 years old. This is the only pics we have of him so far, but its a start. He is right next to a mineral site we haven't touched since last season.

seems to be a good set up...the way the deer is centered in the picture, close enough to the camera to see whole body and get a great look at antlers...hopefully you get good shots of him after he is out of velvet! great set up, seems like the deer knows where the camera is but isn't spooked by it, which is good.

I'm with Zach and Chuck, that's a 2.5 year old IMO. Might be worth hiding that camera just in case he gets camera shy. The buck I've been watching since 2010 got that way when he went from 2-3 and it got really hard to get pics of him. He learned that those funny boxes come with a human element and became increasingly more leery of them as he has matured. Just a thought.

I agree with 2.5 maybe 3.5. Sure needs to put on some weight. His entire front shoulder and shoulder blade is clearly defined.
