Great potential
« on: July 01, 2011, 07:43:05 PM »
I keep on getting more excited to see what these guys will grow into.  With around 2 months to grow what do you think the biggest bull will grow into.  I am guessing a 350- 360 bull.

Nice pics! I like the size comparison between him and that little buck in the first pic! Im gonna say that last one will go around 330-340 when he's done, but I could be wrong.

they begin rutting as early as the end of August... there is a time period before that when the testosterone rises causing the antlers to harden..which ceases growth..the end of July they are pretty much what u see what u get... even whitetails around here are pretty much don't the last few days in July..I have seen whiteys every year in mid August hard horned.
