I’m saying 5 or 6

He’s got characteristics of a deer much older than 3.

At least 5, maybe 6. Lots of older age indicators. Definitely older than 3. Good possibility twice that age.

Tail end of rut last season? Alabama? If so, then I'd guess him 3.5. based on no sagging belly. I think his coat makes him look thicker than he is. He may be 4.5 and saying that based largely on antlers, but I don't know where he is so that could factor in.

That boys right front foot is sure messed up. I would guess he is 4-5 years of age.
