Crazy Change in 1 Year

I've never seen a buck change this much in 1 year to a completely different frame. I've watched them switch sides with inlines and cheaters or add a cheater once in a while but to have a completely different frame is crazy. I think the most random change I have seen besides this one was the cheater buck i watched and hunted for a few years grew a 6" drop tine the year my cousin ended up getting him.

The 3 point main frame was last year

Many probably know that I've never been a fan of 3x bucks and 3x genetics, but that's a cool buck with all the extras!
 
I didn't really want to say anything negative about that particular buck but bucks with a 3x frame will possibly not score very well using the B&C nontypical score sheet even if they have a gob of extra tines. Obviously, score isn't everything.

Cool buck and it's great to see such an incredible increase in only a year or 2!

So you're saying you wouldn't shoot this buck with a 3x3 frame?

I didn’t say I wouldn’t shoot him as a cool nontypical. I just said his 3x frame detracts from his B&C score. Obviously score isn’t everything.

My guess is that the same nontypical genetics are in that herd with 4x4 frame. In fact, there is a 4x4 buck in the 2nd photo. Just think what that buck would be like with a giant 4x4 frame plus extras.

If you had 2 nontypical bucks standing beside each other and 1 had a 3x3 and other had a 4x4 frame with both having similar extra tines, which buck would you shoot?

With that said, he’s still a really cool buck and I would likely shoot him if I couldn’t find a whopper typical or nontypical with a 4x4 frame while scouting/hunting.
 
Amazing What A Buck Can Turn Into When You Let Em Live A Few Years Isn't It?

Put The 3 Point In Front Of 99.7% Of The DRATS & He's Dieing A 3 Point!

Right Niller?

SAD!
I will say I would've been in the 99.7% 😂. I never would have guessed he'd change into this. But I've been wrong lots, looking at the pictures of the king before he was a big deal he was a crab claw 4x5 that I'd have never thought would turn into anything either. Then the bucks I've thought would blow up never changed 😂

Also saw some new pictures of this buck and his cheaters are now splitting too.

exactly why management hunts are stupid.......
 
Curious.

Is he still a 3point on the left side before the extras are accounted for? It looks like the extras come off the back fork, but no g4 measurement. Just the main beam on the left.
 
That is an inferior 3 point that should have been shot on a 2nd tier management tag........you'd give it a second look Founder?
