is he bigger than last year? Why nobody talking about him? I figured russ would post pics. Is he hiding him for a reason
I'd say he is bigger.He has more mass than last year.I had heard that he had dropped his antlers late.

I can't seem to resize my pics small enough for the thread. Any advice? For those who just can't wait or need to see him to make decisions and such, I can E-mail Rolls Royce pics to you. I sent pics to Rodger and Todd already. He is looking really nice and much bigger than last year. He resembles and looks like a cross of Rolex at 3 and Hardcore at 3. Alive and well. Thanks Russ Jr

If you have an option on your camera software to "email" pictures like I do....select your picture the save that picture to a folder. For example, I have Canon software. I select the picture, hit 'email picture', which sizes to emailability (new word!!??) pixel size, I then save to a folder I have named "Email pictures". Then when you post on forum, you can browse for the picture in that folder. It is then correct size.
Oh... my... goodness!!!! 
Rolls Royce is WAY bigger than I originally thought. We had to put him down tonight to cut off a drop-tine at the end of his beam that he damaged and after a up close and personal look I'm very impressed. Everyone will get to see his antlers at the shows later this year and I can't wait to see what you all think. I personally believe he is the biggest and best looking 2 year old I've ever seen up close. He scored 287 BC and his points are 6 inches around at the top still! The score is the least impressive part about him because he is mostly typical and not trashy at all. He doesn't look like a pile of brush with that kind of score already. His mass was the best part about him with his smallest measurements being over 6" and the biggest over 9". Ryan and Heath know there deer as much as anybody and they both said Rolls Royce is bye fare the best surprise up close and that he grows big time! This deer has been through the ringer this year but continues to grow this outstanding growth. No dought, he should have been way over 300 with an awesome natural whitetail look! After what I have seen, I think he just secured a lot of girl friends this fall!

Pictures or words do not do Rolls Royce justice what so ever. He has the look!!! Putting a lable on that deer at 287 is seriously a crime! It was amazing to see a 2 yr old with that much frame and antler but yet still kept his natural typical eye appeal. He has the rack when a hunter looks at it you gotta pick his jaw up from the floor.

Russ Jr, you said near the end of the beam. Was it the one on his left side right at the end or the one on his right midway out?
What were his tine lengths? The pics I have look like they were long.
Roger, It was a new drop at the end of his right beam. I don't think he had grown it yet in the pictures that I have sent out. His G2-12 4/8, G3-11 4/8, G4-10, G5-7 and he has a small unscoreable G6 showing. The top of all his tines are fatter then at the base of the tines and he has lots of tine length to grow. I tried to take some pics but couldn't make our fancy stupid camera work in the dark, so Ryan snapped one with his cell phone camera. I could text you the pic if you get me your cell #. After sleeping on it and thinking a little today, I will probably breed just about all my does to Rolls Royce this year. I'll LAI them to him and back some up to him and the rest to be backed up to Energizer, Noble and Legacy. Probably save a couple for Time Bomb and Ebenezer but Rolls Royce will be the man this year. He is what I'm trying to grow. He looks a lot like his sire Rolex at 3 but a lot bigger!
