its hard to tell, he is heading over to a bedding area that i know a bigger buck has used for a couple years now. its below where you sat on a grassy shelf. i moved the trail cam in hopes of getting a pic of what i think is a BIG buck going in to bedding.

Ken I don't think he is very old.  I do think he would be a trophy in that neck of the woods however, especially with your weapons of choice.
Relax,

Couldn't tell, however, If I said I thought it was a really nice one would it help make you really excited for your deer season to start ?  

I think it was a really nice one.

Good luck out west this year.  Try really hard, but don't forget to notice and to smell the roses along the way.

it is hard to tell, i watched it like 6 times, but i know from other times you live in a hard to hunt mountainous area. and honestly it looks pretty decent buck. guys who hunt the land of giants not, but for what i gather as a mountain deer it looks like a nice one..

Good evening, Ken.  Between 3 and 5 seconds, that rack looks pretty big anyway.

Looked like a deer to me.  I would shoot it.
