I can remember a few years ago one of the judges at the local courthouse where I live bag himself a nice rack buck. The buck dropped quick. The guy just casually walked over and wasn't really paying attention and proped the deers head up. He placed His rifle in The Buck's rack and was waiting on his hunting partner to get there with a camera and the deer jumped up and took off through the woods with his gun still sittin in the antlers. Thank goodness the buck finally had all the life bled out of him about 100 yards away. They retrieved the gun and the venicin. That was just a long story short.
