He has just now reached the age where his skeletal structure is complete, so in coming years the nutrients he receives will start to show up more in antler growth/mass.
He has a lot of potential to make a trophy class main frame.

I would have to say that we are on the same page when it comes to aging. He probably had a little of a gut before he started running it off. Second his legs are already filled out as well. It is hard to really to tell the about the chest. the pic is hard to see.
