Default Velvet Bucks

Had to go dump some brush this weekend and thought I'd make a trip out to the farm to see if any bucks had much velvet growing. To my suprise, as I pulled into the gate I saw twobucks in an unplanted field.One buck had only four points while the other already had a very solid 6 points. Now I know it's early, but 6 points in the middle of June is a great start I would think. Anyone have an idea on how much more this deer will grow? I realize it's tough to judge without a picture, but for those of you who scout throughout the summer, what's your opinion about a 6 pointer this time of year?

I imagine that if he is that size now he will continue to grow for a while. I think he will be a big-un!
