Default Trail cam pic

Here's a couple trail cam pics I got the other day (cropped and zoomed) and I was just wondering on some opinions as to whether or not this is a still growing non-typ.. or an old guy on the downhill sprouting junk? He seems to have decent width and good mass, but his MB and tine length isn't the greatest.

A middle aged buck. Likely not quite in his prime, Anter wise.

Early season is harder to judge age but I would say by the pot belly on him he is 5+ do se is as big as he'll ever get +- a few inches

Looks like an older deer judging by the neck. I find that year after year, the more rut seasons a buck goes through, the neck seems to retain more of it's larger size. BUT, I've been wrong lots before!
