Odd question, but has anyone ever seen a situation where a younger buck displayed mass that you would only expect to see on a very old buck?
I ask because I found a buck on a client's camera census that has the classic body conformation of a 3 1/2 year-old, but he's got antlers with so much mass - not only beams but all the way out the points - that you would swear he's a Wisconsin buck. I refuse to believe a 3 1/2 year-old buck could have that much mass. This buck is an 8-point with vertical tines as thick as your wrist.
