[QUOTE="Ski, post: 5761890, member: 20583"] This buck had a broken front left leg a couple years ago so I called him Hobbles. He went on to survive and came back last year with a weird rack on right side. It had a split g2 and long flier point off the base. I was pretty curious to see what he'd become this year but am surprised to see that although his rack is still weird on right side, it didn't grow. In fact I think he lost size. The split g2 turned into a crab claw beam tip and the flier moved off the base and onto his brow. So essentially he still has the abnormal points he got from the injury, only they moved a full tine farther out the rack. And his left side lost the g2 completely. I've seen several injured bucks come back the following year with abnormal antler growth but never been able to follow it like I have with this one because he's so present on the farm. Here he is in 2021 with the broken leg. His right side even then had a crabby like split. [ATTACH type="full"]202594[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]202597[/ATTACH] This was last year, 2022. Notice the split g2 and flier off base. [ATTACH type="full"]202595[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]202596[/ATTACH] Here's this year. Rack seems par or even smaller than last year. The only thing that's stayed constant is general frame shape and brows that tilt inward. I really thought he'd get big this year but didn't happen. Neat to see how he progressed though with the injury and subsequent odd rack.
