    is there any way to tell if he will grow any more. i know that he will not shed velvet for about another month and a half or so but will he put on significant growth?
    thanks.

    Surprisingly he looks pretty much fully developed if they have growing to do the ends of the tines look like balls. Hopefully he adds some more. Either way a really nice buck :)

    Hes pretty much exactly what hes gonna be right there, I would agree high 30's maybe low 40's if he keeps good mass

    Probably mid 130s and I'd say he's pretty much complete in his growth. Nice buck.

    I also agree about the growth being done. I have watched my buddies deer grow and the tips of the velvet look a lot different when still growing. The velvet will look dark but with this fella it looks like it is not pushing up any more and has nice smooth velvet around the tip so he is done. Very nice buck there. I would shoot him. Here is my buddies deer a while back when he was still growing.

    He looks to be almost done growing. He is going to have a hard time getting past 130 with short 3's. He is a nice looking buck though.
