Well picky picky picky poo LOL......
Hard to tell ages in the wild....genetics are so different....until they are aged with that jaw bone aging tool, teeth size....etc.
I'll keep taking pics of the ones here on our farm. May help a little. Since we at least know their ages.

I saw a post on here a couple years ago that had bucks at different ages in the wild. A lot of folks can tell from body weight/shape; I'm just not one of them.
