The real question is how many guys do you see in Realtree camo?
1, 2, 3... 4. Four guys in Realtree camo, they just aren't waving their arms!
Good pics, I saw 2 deer at first. How old would you judge those bucks to be? I am much less able to judge a deers age at this time of the year it seems and I am geniunely curious.

Daver,
I would agree that it is much harder to judge their age this time of year. Thin necks and not much antler growth.
The buck in the first picture appears to be fully mature and I would say a 5 year old. He has a long face, heavy bases, saggy brisket and belly, and I think I know the deer.
The second picture I think has a 4 year old in the front, and a 3 year old with him to the left. The older deer has a much longer face and notice the deep drop in his back behind his shoulders.
I think this is a great example of a one year old growing his first set of antlers. Compare his body features to the deer above.
