So, in hindsight now, do you think the cotton seed was a major factor in their antler growth this season? You are not just seeing some good results from ongoing culling and feeding along with some more local vegetation this year for feed?

I agree management has helped weed out bad genetics we don’t want. But, the difference in the “regulars” that have been around for several years is noticeable.
Do I think it’s any one thing, no. But, all the above plus cotton seed is making a difference.

@Zee what is the width of that water trough? you can get a good estimate on the rack with it
I’d have to measure it. I was planning to measure the tub I had the cotton seed in as well. Since they always had their head down in it. But, never did. Always forgot.

Hats one thing I really noticed this year. Aside from antler improvements, the bucks have turned into real Potbelly PIGS!! Midge looks hilarious with his short legs and porker body. And Casanova looks like he has a beer gut!

I seriously doubt we will reach that goal. But, we gotta get close.

not a fan of the SPYPOINT cameras. Very low quality pics unless you pay more for just a handful of HD pics a month.
