Just saw one the other day, starting to grow antlers. No idea how much you can relate growth now to relative size later. Have read/been told that antler size is function of adequate diet and health, not necessarily of overall size and age. This seems to be born out, as I've seen some pretty big deer with smaller racks, as well as some that weren't so big, but had nice big racks.
