Thought you might get a laugh at this one... Got him on camera this week. Looks like a messed up rack, and an extra spike off the base, Three horn?????

Very young bottle nose. That will be one heck of a buck in about 2-3 years.

Is it just me...am I the only one who doesn't see anything out of sorts in this picture? I just see a brow tine coming from a low angle, maybe just the spine of the tine facing the camera making the straight lie. I do not see an extra growth point.

That will be a stud buck in a couple of years.

Here is a the trail camera picture before I zoomed in on the rack, he's a stocky little fellow. Hard to tell for sure if it's an extra spike or not unless I get another pic from a better angle.

He's got some mass to his body, the bucks are starting to get some big necks up here! Got a 3 day weekend hunt planned with my son this weekend, maybe the bucks will start getting more daytime travel in.

Think this is the same 9 point from a side view.
