    Ayoung'un to be sure. An older animal would have much more massive bases at the earliest stages of antler growth.

    Thanks for all the replies. This is my first year hunting anywhere outside of WV and I've been trying to scout all summer. The area is thick with white oaks and I have located a few good bedding areas. In the area these pics were taken I found several rubs the size of my upper forearm ranging from this past year all the way back to atleast a couple years ago. There is no way this guy was doing it, I have three cameras located in different sections of that area so hopefully Ill find a better buck.
