Congratulations on a nice buck. It seems pretty slow where I am. I’ve only seen 3 deer so far and not heard many shots.

Both nice deer. Not many shots here either. One half rack spike walked 20 yards downwind of me and never noticed. His sniffer must not have been working.

He had 3 holes completely through the left antler main beam. It grew like that. Anyone know for sure what causes that.
