    Here is the only buck that I have ever got three years worth of photos from.... I thought it was a cool progression of photos showing his changes each year. Hope you guys enjoy it.

    He started out as a decent looking yearling...

    He didn't put on as much antler as I expected as a 2 year old, but a decent 100-110 buck anyhow.

    Now as a three year old he has a great frame and spread. A solid buck who I would shoot if given the opportunity as we have a good bit of history together as I saw him in 07 and 08 as well as finding his match set of sheds last winter.

    Nice pics, I enjoyed seeing how much he progressed. But he is still alive right?

    I didn't want any boneheads looking at the wrong deer and telling me that they think it is not the same buck....

    It's there in both photos... Currently it is only like a half inch bump and not yet a point.

    Another view from that one day.
