AGE EM-UPDATED with new pics added

Ok guys I just wanted to see what yall think the age of these deer are. I covered the horns so that it doesnt affect your guesses. I will just number the pics and yall can number your guess accordingly. I dont know the ages for sure either, but I wanted to hear yalls thoughts. I will post the regular pics after a few days so you can see what they look like with their horns. Thanks!

3. 3 1/2
4. 2 1/2

It is hard to judge the age by just one angle of a picture but here is what I am thinking.
1. 1.5
2. 2.5
3. 3.5
4. 2.5
5. 2.5

Prolly? You're probably right about the smart thing. When your computer says press any key to continue... You must be one of those guys that gets all frustrated because you are looking at the keyboard for a single key with the letters "ANY" on it.

You know we're buds and I am just ripping on ya.

Interesting post!

1. 2.5
2. 3.5
3. 2.5
4. 3.5
5. 3.5
6. 3.5

Just guessing, probably wrong on all of them.

ARE YOU PEOPLE SCARED OR WHAT? I thought this would be fun to see what kind of different answers we would come up with but it seems everybody just wants to look and not throw there two cents in. Well this is one time when I would actually like to hear someones two cents. Ok now that Im done griping I will throw up the pics tomorrow if nobody else wants to get in on this. Like I said in the first post, I dont know the true ages of these deer either, but I thought it would be cool to see what all you guys thought. NOW START GUESSING!!!

3.5
3.5
2.5

Some of those are tough to tell because you can't get a good length lenght to body ratio because of the angle or tall grass. I normally go by the belly/how long the legs look as the best way to age...

All of them except possibly #1 and #3 are going to get atleast on more year. #4 (The Golden Child) is going to get atleast two more years because we think he is only 2.5 and that he has the ability to be an absolute STUD!

#3 looks like 3.5 to me. Like Romer said SHOOTER!! Cool post Corey!!! We should do more like this. Thanks for sharing.

Cool post...

I still think its all the same deer...

Corey,
Great looking bucks and nice pics, thanks for sharing those! Personally I don't think any of them are under 3.5. I'd guess more like 3.5 to 4.5. Here in PA it is very difficult to age bucks just from looking at antlers/body structure-in the areas I hunt anyways. I have trail cam pics of bucks that are 6.5 to 8.5 years old and if I were to ask someone the bucks' age, they most likely would never guess that high. The only reason I know their age is from obtaining their sheds and trail cam photos over the years. Interestingly enough, some of them just don't grow "trophy caliber" racks either. Although this is just in the areas I hunt here in PA anyways. Were you able to get a look at any of these bucks this season?

Hey man!
We have seen most of them this season already. We have a few really nice ones out there that we are trying to get on and let these guys go another year just to see what happens with em next year. This is really the first year my buddy has had trail cams out on his property so we arent super familiar with many of the bucks or their exact ages yet. I do know what you mean about the mature bucks that just dont have it in them to grow the "trophy" racks though. Here in AR where I have grown up hunting we have some very good deer in certain parts of the state but in others you just arent going to kill a buck with a monster rack no matter how old he is. That doesnt make them any easier to hunt or any less of a trophy.
