Ethan Givan Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 He will grow a good amount before shedding. Most likely gain some more tine lenght and beam length. I have no idea how much though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildthing Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 depending on the water and nutrition in your area, I believe most bucks grow their antlers until around mid-late August. Then the start to shed the velvet. He's be a nicer buck next year...I would pass on him this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 When was that pic taken? Looks like a good body size on that buck, his belly looks bloated. Looks like he will have some nice mass. In the southern part of the country there is still about a month left of growing, expect deer to continue to add antler growth up until mid or possibly even late August.

Then the start to shed the velvet. He's be a nicer buck next year...I would pass on him this year. I would pass on him too, maybe even pass on him again the following year. Thats a great buck with lots of potentail. Give him the time to reach full maturity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arkansas Boy Posted July 18, 2009 Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 I would pass on him too, maybe even pass on him again the following year. Thats a great buck with lots of potentail.
