Bucks length grew considerably, but mass not so much, but two main objects are both young, out big spike went to a 4x5, and broken leg got long but with not much mass, bodies huge

Sounds like they reached their genetic potential, especially the spike.  Good luck this season.  Looking forward to seeing pics of another masher.

Man I wish archery deer would open the last weekend in august.
People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.

Shot a hard horned buck Saturday. Saw one other hard and a few other in velvet. Was actually more  surprised to see the velvet ones.
