    If you're talking about the buck that was chronicled for 8.5 years, then yes. I can't really tell (pic quality) on the one Scott posted.

    How far "down" can a buck go in antler size once he gets really old? I've heard so many people say they can become a spike again but I have a hard time believing that.

    No.. I was talking about my 1.5 yr old to 2.5 yr old from my mock scrape.

    Trying to un-effectively point out the radical but otherwise similiar qualities the photgrapher has with his buck as compared to mine. Between those ages.
    Which you questioned (for good reason) last week I think??

    Nevermind though... it was a lazy attempt to bust your chops.:throw:

    The episode I watched can be had + the entire season for less than $10 TYD if your really interested in getting it. Double check, but I believe it was season four based on the description....

    He stayed within an 8 inch span from 4.5 to 10.5. Very Intresting. If that was the norm, i bet there is alot of bucks being mis-aged out there.
