Jamie and his 8 Point he shot December 1, 2018 with his .300

Education on antler growth. Let them grow a little. I put this together to show the life of a spike to a Booner. In the first picture He’s a spike at 1 1/2, 2 1/2 he was 85, 3 1/2 he was 122, 4 1/2 he was 164. In the second picture he’s 165 @ 5 1/2, 6 1/2 he was a Booner at 170 and weighed 260 pounds !! 7 1/2 and was starting his decline at 166 but still weighed 250-260lbs. 8 1/2 he’s 160... In the third picture @ 9 1/2 he’s still 160, 10 1/2 he’s 156, 11 1/2 he’s 143 inches and weighs around 200 lbs. The last picture was taken two weeks before he died. He weighed 130 pounds and his antlers were around 105.

@shamm_woww13 and a gorgeous 8 point she took last night. Finally Met Bambi’s Dad happy as hell with this guy! Couldn’t ask for a better night. Came in to my grunt call at 20 yards, bled so much and was dead within 100 yards right on the main trail. Congrats on a nice buck Sam !!

My cousin Cody Blatner won the youth essay contest and was featured on page 48 in the 2018 NYS hunters guide. Awesome Essay buddy, and congrats !! https://www.dec.ny.gov/docs/wildlife_pdf/15huntguide.pdf
