Wow thats pretty wild, especially with such a thick body like Kenny said. Suppose we can laugh all we want but I wouldn't doubt that rack has saved his butt a few times. hmmmmmmm Natural Selection maybe?
Kenny, what kind of camera do you have?

That rack would be scored as a little bitty one but he is a fat rascal.

Maybe someone with more knowledge about antlers could start a thread about their growth. Will this buck ever get to be an 8-pointer? Or will he always be a fork, same with spikes? I know genetics and diet have a lot to do with it. If you gave this buck more calcium carbonate or supplemented his diet with a good food plot would he have any more antler growth?

Don't know if calcium would help,but he had all the beans,clover and milo he could stand,unless he just moved in for the winter.He would surely develop into a better buck antlerwise in a couple years,guess I've never seen a 250# spike or forkie. That said,yesterday I saw a 3x3 that I guessed to be 18-19" inside and big bodied.....

I sometimes find it difficult to judge another man's rack...however that can occasionally be alleviated with copious amounts of the intoxicating beverage of one's choice and/or a large mallet...
Of course your mileage may differ...

Thick winter coat...hair slightly raised..... Thin neck.......and concave neck/brisket junction.
Just a nice year and a half old deer!
J-longbow,That once a spike,always a spike way of thinking went out the door years ago. This buck should mature into a fine buck someday if given the chance.

I'd score him at about 50-55lbs of mighty tender and tasty de-boned meat

Ha :D he is at least a 5 pointer if you count that brow tine stick up by his ear. Is this the first time you have seen him. I would see what he has to offer next year. If not much difference he would be the first one to get my tag. Just so I don’t get a bunch like him.
However if next year he shows improvement see were he goes. Ooh yes the score does teeny tiny count.

I don't know he looks prettu symetrical. He might score well into the 20's.
