I think cactus bucks have it worse than any other buck around. is`nt it true they are or have been castrated ?

Brett, he sure does.

Hunterman67, you're right in MOST cases. Normally cactus bucks are "caused" by damaged testicals which in turn causes a hormonal inbalance.

Not all are though....sometimes the inbalace is caused by something else.

And the top one. WOW is all I can say, maybe the one I watched for the last two years will grow some more junk and be that big in 2007. [-o< [-o<

He looks very similar in many ways though, just not the extra tine length in cheaters, etc.

Maybe the reason they aren't allowed is that they didn't grow all that bones on their heads in one season. Since they don't shed their antlers they can just keep growing for years and years.

Just a thought. :-k

Don't argue with an idiot; people watching may not be able to tell
the difference.
