How Much Growth for Year 3? Pics
We got this non-typical on cam when he was 1.5 and 2.5 years old. I've always heard that the jump between 2.5 and 3.5 is a big one. We had a mild winter, too.
What do you think we might have this year?

Based on the first pics we got of him, I thought he was 1.5 then. Maybe he was 2.5 then? Then he'd be growing his 4th set of antlers this year. That could be a nice jump from 3.5 to 4.5 yo.
I'm hoping he's one of those non-typicals from the magazines this year. Any chance????

With him being a non-typical you l never know what he'll be like.
We've always had typicals on our property. In the last 2 years, we've seen 3 non-typicals. Variety is the spice of life

To tell you the trueth I am puzzeled by the fact I do not see any velvet on his rack.. So I am believing he has held his rack over from last year.. This also makes me think he is older than you are guessing as well.. So I would not expect to see any more growth on it.. He surely is a nice buck though either way with that extra antler showing on him.. Good Luck getting him..
