Default Buck ?

Do you think this buckhas broken his g2 or has a droptine forming? If he broke itwill it fall off or justgrow into a droptine?

i would say its not a droptine. it looks like he has one on the otherside to match it. it also looks to be bending backwards like it was bent on something. i think it is too early for fights though.

To me it looks broken .
I could be wrong .
Although theres no fighting going on yet he could have bumped it on something ??

He bent his G2 when it was soft. It won't fall off when he sheds his velvet. I've seen this numerous times.

Ive seen bucks do some sparring in velvet (in pics), but not anything that could break a point off. I don't think its a droptine.

I would say broken G2 probab;y smaked it on something when running of a filed or something like that, maybe under a fence etc. Sometimes they stay one and grow some funcky stuff, mice buck non the less
