Jul 8, 2023 #1 U UT-longbeard Well-Known Member TNDeer Supporter Joined Dec 27, 2018 Messages 279 Location Cheatham County I noticed the lower right hindquarter has some skin peeled back. Maybe an injury caused the antler to form like this? Attachments IMG_6321.jpeg 435.1 KB · Views: 70 IMG_6320.jpeg 454.4 KB · Views: 82 IMG_6322.jpeg 333.3 KB · Views: 77

May be an injury to the antler itself that caused it to grow that way, looks like it has a knot just above the eye.
