A few from camp a few years ago.

I been seeing lots of sheds which is great but I'd like to see some buck harvests too. I joined the madness after a great '08 muzzle loader hunt. Because I wasn't a member at the time, I thought I'd take a moment to post a photo of three bucks that my brothers and friend took a few years back. Incidentally they were all shot on the same hillside as my 08 buck. I'd like to hear what you think happened to the antlers on the buck that my youngest brother shot. It's the one in the middle of the photo. It was a good hunt year. I took the photo. No buck for me that time around. The photo was taken before I had a digital camera so its a scan, not the greatest quality.

Let's see some bucks from past years.
A good year, one 5x3 and two 4 points

I'm going to guess it's one of two things. Either he got some injury to his antlers while in velvet or his jellybeans got hung up on a fence?

:thumb That is a great year! As far as the middle bucks antlers are concerned I would guess either he damaged them while they were still growing or he had an injury somehwere else. I know that if a buck has another injury to their body it can affect their antler growth.

Great Pic and thanks for sharing. The middle bucks antlers were deformed by Obama!!! Something else we can blame on him.

Then I guess he's also responsible for those strange looking sheds over on the freak shed thread. :)

Great lookin' bucks Enuf!

As for your brother's buck, I would tend to agree with one of the previous posts. It looks like he either took a noser and damaged them while in velvet or had/has an issue with his testosterone output/testicular issue.

Although it's hard to tell in the pic, it looks like he "squished" them or something.

 Sometime when I'm at his house I'll snap a photo of it. He boiled the skull. We call it the squiggly buck. Then i'll post it up.

The middle buck found a still, plain and simple. I would venture a guess of 180 proof. Not only enough to curls his hair but his antlers, too!

 That right there is just plain funny lol lol

I doubt there's too many stills out there. But maybe some hunter left an untapped keg behind for him.
