Title: Non Typ, gets to grow another year
Post by: Mallardmasher on July 06, 2018, 04:17:37 PM: His normal side 5pt is much improved over the little short spindly 5pt he was last year as a 21/2 year old, then came his injury in Dec, and we have decided to give him a free pass to see where he goes next year. What say you?

Perfect. It makes it that much easier to let him ride. If another hunter takes him, he/she will be thrilled and you'll still harvest one of your other trophy bucks. If he lives through another season or two, all the better. He keeps on spreading those genes.
