ORIGINAL: JNTURK

GM...what was the reasoning or science behind an injury to a deer's scrotum that would make it not drop his antlers? Just curious??

i know of a deer here in CA that was hit by a car in april (that is what the theory was) and caused an injury to his leg (bone) so his calcium intake was all geared toward the formation of "bone" and he had a very large goofy looking rack due to this.....

guy who shot the deer was tracking it and noticed it had been hit in april and then got a chance to shoot it with a rifle during the season.
I believe a buck with his testicles out of wack so to speak doesn't have the right levels of testosterone to complete the antler growing cycle. Some never lose their velvet and the antlers keep growing strange formations. While others never drop their antlers at all and get very odd shaped racks.
