A little early to have a full set of horns in velvet?

That actually may be a doe with horns,I've heard that they keep velvet most of the year and never drop their horns,maybe someone with real world knowledge will chime in. It would be cool to have on the wall though!

 

[redblood]

yep. that is a doe.look at the head shape

 

[brmaster]

cool pic, that would definitely be a conversation pc on the wall

 

[Diehard Hunter]

Do you have a shot from th side or walking away? I am thinking antlered doe!

 

[BlountArrow]

Really cool right there.

 

[RUGER]

Very cool.

 

[Shed Hunter]

Castrated buck. cool pics for sure.

 

[in the dog house]

Great pics!

 

[catman529]

Sounds like a doe with horns or a buck that got his nads knocked off during the summer

 

[lpo1981]

That deer would be on my list!!

 

[monsterbuck07]

Castrated buck. cool pics for sure.

I agree.

 

[Andy S.]

Buck with an injury to his testicles/testosterone would be my guess. Anyone else notice the stained tarsal glands in the second pic?

What head shape is that?

Good grief Daryl.
Have you forgotten Bergmans rule about doe head shape?

Bregmans Rule:
as we move away from the cold months, and closer to summer, does become less and less swollen from being so close to the equator, thus resulting in smaller body appendages and smaller heads. The heads become more "cylindrical" in shape. Unlike bucks who have larger appendages and more "square" looking heads.

Wow...wildlife management 101.

 

[easy45]

cool

 

[hunter0925]

I say castrated buck. Would be on the ground in a heart beat!
