I was thinking the same thing. You put it a little more politically correct than I would have.

I am not at all surprised with the deer short coming.
I've had a doberman once that had no testicles (visible)either and later died of cancer.
I have seen people born without limbs, etc. Guess it's one of those things.

I totally remember that. It wasridiculous and only one of many similar to it. The ethics police have not been so brutal in the past year or two as they were back then, but are still around. It's funny...LEN and DAVID are actually 2 people I respect alot on this board. LEN probably has more archery knowledge than most that have ever hit this board. I really miss his posts and the info he shared with us. DAVID is really a good guy...and his personality is what it is--take it or leave it. (NO I don't know him personally and have never met him or spoken to him, just from the board). He calls a spade a spade, lots of folks don't like that. Personally I do. YES, sometimes he gets a little riled up and over-crotchety, but hey we all do sometimes. I think he has alot of real life expererience to share, especially in regards to hunting. I'd say he has a right to be over-crotchety due to the beatings he's taken here at times. That has probably put him on the defense at all times now, which can defintiely sway how someone comes across....especially to the new folks here that didn't ever seehim post years back.

I've been around here since late 2000 and used to post and read alot.It did get pretty ugly a while back and many good folks left the board unfortunately. Now I just don't have the time to post or read like I used to. There are still some great folks here and some actually returned. Unfortunately folks like LEN & DAVID don't put much out there anymore due to what has happened in the past. There are definitely cliques that form, andsometimes they do tend to gang up on folks. Ijust don't like the bashing some folks take, and sometimes for ridiculous reasons. Hey lets face it...we have ALL done stupid stuff, and probably also done stuff that is unethical or maybe even illegal. That is called life....we have skeletons in out closets, and stuff happens. If there is anyone that can honestly say they've never done anything wrong while hunting...we'll that would probably be a miracle. Maybe they are out there, but I doubt it. I try and be as up & up as possible in all things I do, but sometimes things happen. Like the bible says....we are all sinners, let him who is not be the one to cast the first stone. If you think you aren't...LOL.

I really enjoy this site, the info I've learned over the years, and the freinds I've made. Its a great thing. I just wish the folks here were a little more forgiving in some situations.

LEN, I will still get up to your shop one of these days to meet you...I promise You and DAVID would be welcome in my camp anytime...(though I doubt you'd want to come---you'd be bored to death with the lack of activity vs. what you are used to.) LOL

NOW--as for the topic, YES that is weird. Did the deer have any FEMALE parts also, or was it just a non-developed buck? I have seen a few young deer that I didn't know were bucks at all until I flipped them over. They did all have testicles though, although not big

hey len i live in maryland also an i had somthing like that happen to me... i was hunting a farm in carroll county an shot a buck with 2 parts male and female.. it was weird never had that happend befor i guess its the inbreed of the deer.. i have no other clue on why its like that
