New Pic of Big 8
|
I think he looks like he is pretty much done growing for the year. How old did you say he was?
Ive been following and was hoping his tines would explode this year but it looks like he may end up smaller than last year. |
|
Looks like he may have peaked this year, any clearer images to see if he has an injury or anything that could explain a possible lack of growth?
|
I just looked through last year's trail cam photos. I have pics from July 24th. His tines are the same length as they are now and he did put on a couple more inches last year. So I think he will still get more tine length. He did increase spread and mass this year, though.
|
I can't tell on the mass having velvet in the new picture and not in the old. I wonder if he is maybe a year older than we thought. He seems to have really grew between what was thought to be 2 and 3 but that usually happens between 3 and 4.

I am only assuming that his smallest pictured rack is from 2.5 years old as it looks too thin to be a 3.5 year old's rack. I guess it's possible. We did have two bad winters. Coming off a mild winter this time.
If he was 5.5 and not 4.5, I would expect a pretty healthy rack, maybe prime? |

I think he looks closer to being done growing in this years picture than he does in that one.

No bulbous ends? :)

I'm pulling a camera that I got him on in the daylight last year. It's about a mile into the bush, so he's more comfortable there than a field. Hopefully some good pics of him there. I will post those on Saturday if there are any.
