no worries Report post Posted August 19, 2020 I’m sure it varies, but what is the general timeline for Coues to finish growing? We hunt the Southern units and are getting bucks on trail cams. It seems like they were dropping by late April/early May and sprouting nubs in June. Does that sound about right? Mid August pics are showing some good growth and heavy velvet. G3’s are barely showing on most, or maybe they won’t have them. Do G4’s pop out late or do all tines appear early and grow bigger? thanks Jim Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

no worries Report post Posted August 20, 2020 Thanks guys. Our October youth hunts are a mix of partial velvet and hard horn, with an occasional full velvet. My real question is about antler growth. When is a buck finished growing? If you have trail cam pics in late August is he still growing? I’m guessing mid September but just wanted to know more. thx Jim Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
