I seem to recall reading somewhere that a buck puts on about 20% growth from year to year until they reach about age 5.

Can anyone confirm this? Seems like it is a bit high, 20% on a 150 would bump that buck up to 180 the following year, seems like a awfully big jump in size.

I am pretty sure I read this in Deer and Deer Hunting, but the magazine rack got 'cleaned' up and a bunch of my magazines got recycled [:@]
