Velvet bucks, a growing…

I’m keeping an eye on a group of blacktail bucks, watching them grow through the spring.  Don’t ask where…., Cause I ain’t tellin’…

Check out the growth in the last 3 weeks…

 I call this one “Stub” .  His right antler is misformed.  He is the lookout. 

This buck has a misformed right antler that is his trade mark.

This is “E.G.” short for Eyeguards.  I think he is already 16 inches wide.

This Blacktail buck has a great start with some out standing Eyeguards

There are three bucks in the bachelor group.  Stub is on the left, and E.G. is the furthest right.

Look at the growth “E.G.” has put on!  Any guesses on width?

Getting Wider, and forking!

    Man, oh man! That is gonna be one whopper of a blacktail! It’s amazing how fast their antlers grow, isn’t it? That’s great growth in just two weeks!
