Good growth for end of June?

[mikemorvan]

It's been awhile since i've had camera's out. I've forgotten what growth looks like from month to month. I think this is pretty decent growth for June 29. Thoughts?

Had a few like him last year coming regularly, but now i have young bucks and a bunch of axis.......guess i will take what i can get.

He is off to a good start and is still growing.
Bucks will all grow at different rates. My FIL managed a breeder operation for several years and I was amazed at the difference in the bucks when we would visit this time of year. Some bucks would be nearly completely grown out and others would be just starting to branch at their G2s. Where they were in early July had little correlation of how they finished. Several of his bucks that looked behind ended up over 200” and were bigger than several of the early growers. The late growers really popped in August and September.

Ours out west are either just starting g2 on some and g3 on others. Those are pretty far ahead I’d say for late June.

I guess that's what i was asking. I guess i assumed all bucks grew antlers at roughly the same rate. Obviously not. I was curious if this buck was "special". I guess he's just doing it the way he does it?

This pic shows him and a couple of buddies that are lagging. Although the middle one looks like he may have something.
