About all that's left here is a little more mass,maybe. Like some one else said, they're losing the club look. Pretty much what your seeing now is what you'll get.

TR. in most of the midwest including on my property in OH. the bucks are done growing by July 21 1st., here is some pics during this time period over the last 3 years . Please note that the buck in the first pic. was taken 2 weeks ago, not 08/08 ( I forgot to set the date and time when I changed the batteries.)Pike
