RE: Shot this buck. Whats wrong?
If you say he was limping then it is probably injury related.
On our farm we have a bad gene that we are trying to get out where some of our bucks are killer on one side then either have one spike on the other or some kind of fork. We have been culling these bucks during shotgun seasonsover the last 5 or 6 years and have got 4 that I can remember. Only one left that we know of this year.

Sounds correct if the buck was limping on his right side it would have affected his opposite side antler. idk how this works but if a deer is hurt on one side his antler on the opposite side will be messed up. I have seen this several times.
