That's my ugly mug, got lucky and shot him laying down. Had been shot earlier in the week up high in the front leg. Thanks for posting Mike.
He was laying down in a tree top slashing looking at me, ran one right down the snot box.Damn. You shoot his nose off? LOL
I think your correct, the end of his tines look like the velvet stayed on.Good work. Looks like velvet hung on antlers
