Hey guys here is one I found last week in an area that I hunt. I got alot of pictures of this deer during the season, he broke off his left mainbeam in front of the G3 sometime during the rut....he will be nice next year

He would score about 110 gross, I think he is only a 2.5yr old(I hope).

Nice find Mark . Tough to tell from one pic, but I would lean towards 2.5 also, but could be 3.5 very easily.

EDIT: Just looked again. Real tough. I'll just call him an even 3.

I said 3.5 cuz of mass, tine length, and body. And also, i don't know if the genetics are THAT good in MN

Another great shed Mark! I see he has a "round bump" in the middle of his G2. Every once in awhile you see bumps in a tine just like this one. Anybody know if there is a reason why?

Nice collection started for the year Mark! Careful on the railing or he may just get his right beam busted too.

That would not be good!
I have two more that I found this year that I will try to get some pictures and post for you to see. Good start to the year-

Brad, Im pretty sure that bump is from an injury in the growing stage of velvet.....I found a set a few years ago and alot of the tines were like that.

Brad I agree with Mark, I think he bumped that tine sometime during velvet or growing season.
