Last season Georgia hunter Benny Overholt passed a good non-typical buck in velvet that he estimated to be five years old.
Fast forward to 2021 when the same buck started showing up on trail cameras, and Overholt noticed there was something decidedly weird about it. He determined that the deer never shed its rack after last season, and remained in velvet the entire time.
