This is a new place that got permission to hunt and in the past week got this guy at the apple trees everyday. Along with some other nice bucks.

Anyone ever seen anything like this before? Shoot or not to shoot?

clos21 09-08-2009 12:27 PM

TyMidge21 09-08-2009 12:29 PM

LOL, not the eyes.

Those are some messed up antlers. Wonder what he would look like in 2-3 years from now.

This buck reminds me of one i saw in a magazine once. That deers antlers grew right around his face and jaw. The buck in the magazine died of starvation. He couldnt open his mouth anymore to eat .

blakefrautschi 09-08-2009 12:57 PM

i would have trouble passing just because he looks so cool... i love deer with character.

MOTOWNHONKEY 09-08-2009 01:05 PM

Shoot the ugly bis-terd and put him out of his misery. A democratic " Death Panel" decision if you will.

killzonearchery 09-08-2009 01:56 PM

thats weird id take it out if it is a birth defect

razor6570 09-08-2009 02:18 PM

Wow that is weird. I would shoot him. Do a skull mount! I promise you that you would alot of people's attention with that buck.

TheMiz54 09-08-2009 02:29 PM

I also like a lot of character and I would def take him if the opportunity presented itself

BOWHUNTER818 09-08-2009 02:35 PM

SHOOT, that is a one of a kind Deer!!

Unless you are in states that have regulations on the number of points a buck has to be to shoot it, then I would definitely set my sights on this buck. Looks like a once in a lifetime deer if you ask me.

This is something I would shoot, not just for the kill but possibly putting it out of any other misery. May not be big but a good "talk piece" and salvation to the deer.

Hunt4Life23 09-08-2009 05:16 PM

If i was hunting somewhere other than PA where there werent antler restrictions I would definitely shoot him

sr77 09-08-2009 06:55 PM

Odd to say the least. Cool character though.

its a growth defect in his antlers, it can happen from trauma or the likes, we had one that got killed here similar to that, we found a muzzy lodged in his head below the antler base.

TyMidge21 09-09-2009 06:08 AM

Well I plan on shooting this deer if he steps out at the wrong time. I think he is a once in a lifetime deer and would look really cool as a texas mount. Thanks for the input! Good luck to all!!!

I shot a deer like that once. One side of his skull had been busted either in a fight or getting hit by a car and the pedicle was actually turned upside down.

Your guy is growing downward on both sides which is very strange.

His horns are growing down like this one.

Shoot him! He's got double drop tines!
