One rule of thumb is to put the distance between the eyes at 10 inches. That being, that one looks to be into the 60+ range. Last edited by 1minute; 07/24/10. 1Minute

I figured him to be mid 60, and he still has a month to go before the season starts. I might have to try and catch up with him later on.
