Can't remember what tv show it was but they featured a buck that had a cage around his face-his antlers grew down and around his entire face

sometimes injury can change scull structure or force anteler growth to be abnormal, very cool

Years ago my dad shot a Mule deer buck that one side grew down like that but was tight to his head.

Cool buck, spelled deer wrong though..

Saw a "cactus" buck one time. That was pretty cool. I had only seen pictures of them before.

My .02 is the pedicle was damaged at some time.

Seen a few.... Couldn't put a 3rd point on one during season for the life of me or he'd be on the wall...

Kinda looks like the buck I have on camera...

ORBowHunter · « **Reply #11 on:** August 14, 2012, 12:42:45 PM »

Crazy looking growth... I wonder how he fares with the ladies...?

I kindof hope he doesn't pass those genes along!

Friend of mine's son shot a spike whitetail a few years back that had the same thing going on - turned out that the antler had actually broken at the skull and when the velvet went away it fell off

Crazy

Cool looking bucks!

bucklucky has a picture on his site of a blacktail that had a horn growing down along side his face. pretty cool

chukarchaser · « **Reply #16 on:** August 14, 2012, 09:49:56 PM »

I to have seen this before. The buck had a deformed right horn and and his left rear leg had been broken in the past but was fully healed when killed. I even remember reading somewhere that this type of horn growth reflects damage done to bone structure on the opposite side of the body.

coyotecrazy · « **Reply #17 on:** August 14, 2012, 10:10:52 PM »

I passed on a buck like that last year. One side was a nice 2 point, the other an odd mess, I just couldn't put three points on one side for sure. It is neat too see deer like that.

rebal69972 · « **Reply #18 on:** August 14, 2012, 10:52:09 PM »

Ive seen a few in pics and on TV. i would love to put 1 on the wall. It would be an awesome mount

carpsniperg2 · « **Reply #19 on:** August 14, 2012, 11:07:59 PM »

Funky for sure.

Kola16 · « **Reply #20 on:** August 14, 2012, 11:31:49 PM »

So could you call it a "drop beam"

ctwiggs1 · « **Reply #21 on:** August 15, 2012, 10:24:27 AM »

I've only heard of them around the Hanford Site....

pat riotic · « **Reply #22 on:** August 15, 2012, 10:29:20 AM »

weird ive only heard of the antelope that had his antler grow into his eye

sirmissalot · « **Reply #23 on:** August 15, 2012, 10:32:02 AM »

I have a 4 point blacktail that has a drop horn going down one side of its face. The 4 point side is awesome, big fronts and small backs and the drop horn is just a big club with an eye guard.

Wildsau · « **Reply #24 on:** August 15, 2012, 10:37:45 AM »

IMHO These bucks are perfect to be taken out of the gene pool. They'd look real good on my wall.

jeepasaurusrex · « **Reply #25 on:** August 15, 2012, 11:01:59 AM »

Hands free taken to a whole new level...

hermiston · « **Reply #26 on:** August 15, 2012, 06:50:03 PM »

Got a pic of a bull a few years back, and his went back
