    Can some of you guys who have pics of a buck in velvet and the same buck with bone post side by side
    pics please. If possible from the same year too. I am trying to get a grasp on how much difference in antler size
    appearance they lose due to shedding velvet.


    Thanks,
    T

    Tony, on our team page I have good pictures of the buck I shot in velvet and after I killed him. If you want different angles, I have a ton of trail cam pics of him too.
