I appreciate the feedback. I clicked edit and save to see if that would help. I checked to see if they would show up on my phone and they do so I don't know what the issue is. I'm quite technologically illiterate so perhaps it's on my end.

Hopefully it changed for all to see.
 
I'm going to repost everything again from scratch and see if it works. Thanks for the heads up.

Try using Tapatalk if the photo is on your phone.

above pics from Jan 19, 2019 and Dec. 25, 2018 below pics are from Oct, 13, 2019. They are the best to try and age. I wish I had better one for broadside pics. I thought he was 3.5 last year but I'm not sure his pics this year say he's 4.5 this year. Thanks for your thoughts.

The following buck I believe to be 3.5 yrs. Thanks for looking and sharing your thoughts.

In western Nebraska where I hunt, both would have to be 6+ to carry that much bone around. And, dang near a ghost to live that long.
 
456F856F-E6F2-44CD-9D5E-C802A683C43E.jpeg This buck is 5.5 IMO. The neck flows straight into the brisket, his shoulders are as big as his hips. A broadside pic would be better but I’m going with 5.5. I agree the bottom buck is 3.5, the top buck too. The buck I posted is neither the top one or the bottom one IMO.

No matter the age he's a BRUTE !!

I'd say your right. His Face almost looks like it's running out of room for it to be there. His Head and Neck is pushing it out of the way, so to speak.

Like you said his neck flows right onto his chest with none of the "bump" you see on younger deer.

A real Brute by any means.
 
Thank you JeffH and Deadeye. I'm leaning on letting the 5x5 be on the target list. The bottom buck is for sure going to be off limits this year.

My friends will be happy to hear the 5x5 made the cut:)
 
5.5 on the first and 3.5 on the second

I think your first buck looked 4.5 last year. He was just skinny last year from running his rear end off during the rut. I hope you get him, because he is a real trophy.
