How big are June deer?
I saw a deer the other day and I could have sworn it was already at least a 10 pointer! Then i put my camera out somewhere else and saw a buck that just grew his brow tines and is working on his main beam (it's about 3inches so far). Do bucks actually grow this big in June?

I seen a really nice 8 pt 2yrs ago in the 2nd week of June. He already had 6 to 8 inch tines and looked really nice. They do sometimes have nice racks this early in the summer but not sure if thats the norm or not. I also saw 2 nice bucks this yr in early May turkey hunting that were 80% done growing their main beams and the tines were like tennis balls across the beams on both sides.

Ive got several nice Bucks on my trail camera that are doing very well,their Antlers are branched off with decent brow tines,and forked main beams coming out with 3 to 4 points on each side....then I had another Buck with huge antlers that looked as big a round as a coke can but they were only 4 or 5 inches high?
I think the Bucks that lost their Antlers early are doing better and had an early start on their new Antlers,I had a few young Bucks that just had knubs sticking out....gonna check my trail camera here in a few days and hopefully their doing much better?We put out salt and mineral early so hopefully it will give them a good start plus we've had plenty of rain this year so they won't be as stressed out like last year!

They always look extra big with the velvet on. Two weeks ago there was one hit, laying along the road near me. Had pretty much already. Saw a spike walking the dog the other night. he looked about finished already.
