THat buck is looking good this year. Agree he is about through growing forthis year, perhaps a little more on the main beams. The other points are getting sharp and the main beams are getting close to that case. Once the bulbous tine ends starts becoming more of a point the growth is abut over

![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2019/05/full-9089-187277-img_1863.jpg) The Axis that was a spike last year shed his velvet yesterday. He lost his antlers on 2-18-19. He had the shortest time of growing new antlers. The other two that lost their antlers before him are still in velvet. I learned something new.

![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2019/01/full-9089-173706-img_1428.jpg) Here he was in April of last year. I did not find his antlers this year. What a stud Don how much does a mature Axis doe weigh?

I really don't know. Maybe just a little more than a WT Doe. But just like all animals some are bigger than others. There are a couple of Axis
Does that are with these Bucks. They look about the same size as my WT Does are.
