Shot in the rain and then dragged i think but welldone mate.

[noddy10 411]

due to the heavy rain had to drag him about half a mile the the jeep. the neck on it is about the equilerlant to a 36" waist

 

any ideas on his age?

Well done to you but im surprized niether had a roe sack they make life easy. He dose look old But dosent seem to have the sloped cornets that you find & i cant say out on his pedicles from the pic. Quite often old,old bucks just grow thick lower antler to just be a tall spiker with poor tine growth. From your pic its so hard to tell the age of your buck but i would guess at 7-10yrs & you can cut the back teeth & count the rings like a tree.
