You think a buck looses all his weight a few days after an injury. Your a tard if you think that. show me this buck in february. Then will see if he looks like he'll make it or not.

I saw two bucks this year with broken skull plates right after the rut. Both bucks antlers were hanging by skin. I seen a few others over the years as well none of the ones ive seen made it through the winter. They all looked just as fat as that dink a few days after as well.

The buck in the photo could also be one that just grew weird. Not saying it didnt.

who farted?
 
If that bucks skull plate is/was broken it was prior to his antlers growing this last spring. It grew down and then he rubbed the velvet off of hit. He will be fine, cause if it was causing issues it would have already shown.

Let me guess, you drive a 1 ton with oak trees for smoke stacks, 12" lift kit and 40" tires to pull a single place lawn mower trailer?

LAST EDITED ON Dec-15-12 AT 08:49AM (MST)[p]Beautiful cape on the typical. Like others have said, the antler is non typical, indicating an injury prior to growing this set of antlers. With a broken skull plate the antler would normally be the same as the other side .
 
might be genetic..back when bumblebee by cedar city was a draw unit..i saw a bunch of bucks like that over a few years.one nice big 3 point runnin with some does during the rut, then a bunch of yearling 2 points in that area the next year. that was just about the time when they threw it back to a general hunt and wiped out all the bucks.i woulda liked to seen that 3 point in a nuther year or two. never could find him again.
 
I found a buck with a similar condiition last year in Ogden, UT. At first I thought he had shed one side and it was just dangling on his head. But when he got up, you could see it was solid on there.

My brother killed a dink many years ago that had a horn growing straight down along face. He has it hung on his shed on the corner. Kinda cool. I know 2 other bucks that where killed in that same area with the same thing. 1 grew up and the other down along face.

I would have to say genetics or damage in velvet. Just my opinion.
 
LAST EDITED ON Dec-17-12 AT 03:35PM (MST)[p]My two cents, not a broken scull plate but genetics. I shot a buck over 2 decades ago that had a broken skull plate. Figured a car may have hit him. The difference here is that mine had every inch of dried velvet on only the broken side. Also the antler would move slightly. I can't imagine a deer would rub a broke skull plate antler.
But what if my deer would not have been shot? Would it heal in the winter (after it fell off, out of place) then grow a new antler he could rub????
