Brad Hunter's buck is measured in velvet. Velvet animals are NOT eligible for world record status. They MUST be stripped and panel measured to be eligible.
Velvet entries (all antlered species) are accepted as a non-ranked animal in their respective class (in this case typical mule deer-velvet) and will appear only one time in the record book. Their entry will, however, remain in the P&Y archives forever as an accepted animal.
