I caught these deer just a few minutes ago on crittercam. The one looks like it's got an antler starting to grow. What do you all think?

That's what I thought CD. It looks to me like a spike with only one side. Just seemed a little early to me.


Retarded eh? I might be able to get that one!

I would guess that the "antler" is in fact some object located behind the deer. I dont know much about whitetails but can the headshape give a clue to someone? Should the genitals not be more visible?

I can't tell about the "antler", but is this the typical picturequality from your crittercam?

GH, I think it's part of another deer. I see another deer's legs under it's neck. Apparently there's four deer in the picture.

I think I would have to agree with Rebel Hog. It looks to far back onIt's head to be an antler.

Here's another shot. The deer in question has it's head down by the saltblock.

I'll see if I can find anymore.

Another...again the deer in question is in the foreground.

Head looks kinda like a does'. I don't see a package hangin either. If it is an antler, it definatey looks somewhat deformed. I've seem a few antlers that were just starting to grow and they looked different to me.
