Check out the right antler on this little guy! I would sure like to see how he develops in another three or four years!

He will be really cool if he makes it a few more years.

A buddy of mine got a big 10 point this year that looked like that. I'll try and get a picture.

I have one on my property that I hope grows up... One side is so palmated that his actual "Points" were only about an inch long.... but the antler itself was about 9 inches from base to tip.... I love a good deer with some character...

That deer looks 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 years old...

If he's a normal healthy deer, I would guess 1 1/2. Definitely no older than 2 1/2. The 2 1/2 year olds that I've taken have about twice the mass/length that this one has.

That's cool. Hope it gets bigger. I'd put all my money on that deer being 1-1/2 year old.

I have heard that this type of growth (and saw one killed like this year) that the deer was wounded the year prior on the other side or something.
