RE: Deer antler growth progression?
The reason im so into this is because of "Freak Daddy", the big non-typical i have in one of my areas. My cousin found a shed that i truly believe was his from 2007, it has the same kicker of the side and the brow tine is starting to fork a little. But the deer was only a 120-130 class buck then (And thats stretching it). If you look at the pics of him from this year, he is easily 150+ inches, and that is a HUGE gain in my eyes. I guess it is possible for the shed to belong to another deer, but with 2 of the exact same characteristics and similar main beam shape, i found it doubtful.
Shed:
Freak Daddy:
The right antler is just so similiar. He added 1 point on his main beam, a droptine, and his brow forked a few times (Their are nubs on the shed that you cant see from the angle in the picture). If it is the same buck he addedALOT of bone.
