I was told once by a master scorer(SCI) that antlers would shrink , some considerably, due to the drying time required for scoring hunted bucks. Does anyone know a % of average shrinkage after drying period is over? Just curious. Thanks in advance.

Just thought I would start a new thread to seperate the antler pictures.

Last November we had a smaller buck get trashed by a much larger buck, both antlers were ripped from his skull, I let him heal through the winter just to see what would happen but I thought he would make the trip to the freezer in a month or so. Suprisingly he has regrown full but odd bases, now...
