Shot this buck today. My brother jumped him but missed two shots as he ran away. He chased the buck and I headed 90 degrees to see if he tried to circle back. After checking the next canyon I figured he had ran to another zip code and stopped for a breather. Stopped for about thirty seconds and he jumped out of some CRP he was bedded in about 100 yards up the hill and stood for the shot. Would'nt of seen him had he stayed still.

When I got to him I noticed his crazy headgear (5X7 with stickers). Palmation on the left antler and also a split brow tine. He also has an eyeguard like point growing out of his forehead below his right antler a little over an inch long. There is actually another small point just below the left antler but to small to pick up on camera. I plan on getting a european mount to show of the strange "Unicorn Buck".

Anyone ever see something like this before. Definitely a Non-Typical!

Seen it before, not all that common. Very unique deer worthy of a nice shoulder mount. Congrats!

Nice buck. so would that be an 11 point whitetail? I have never seen that before but it is really different.

I got a muley in for a shoulder mount from oregon that had the same thing but it was between the horns. Cool buck!

Cool buck! Congrats.
I've got a little blacktail that has an extra separate button and point on each side just below main ones.

Where's the Hunters Orange?

Nice non-typical bet your brother was bummed!

Thwack · « **Reply #12 on:** October 14, 2008, 02:01:52 PM »

Brother was bummed but we are headed back out to find another one.

Also I took the orange off before the photo. I was shedding gear getting ready to gut him.

Why is it people always ask about Hunter Orange? Seems like you are looking to stir up trouble where there is no trouble to be found. I took my orange off for every photo I've taken except some upland photos.

Hey nice buck!

I sure woould like to go hunting with you and your brother I know I wouldn't miss

LOL I tell you what if you let me go with you this year I will do all the driving and I'll fill up before so we don't run out!

Thwack · « **Reply #15 on:** March 29, 2009, 04:11:07 PM »

The gas issue would be your brother's fault but point taken

kirkl · « **Reply #16 on:** March 29, 2009, 05:14:42 PM »

Did you ever skin the head of that buck and see what it looks like, was it an actual horn growing. would like to see a skinned head pic.

Thwack · « **Reply #17 on:** March 29, 2009, 09:09:16 PM »

Took the head to a taxidermist for a european mount. He quoted me five month turn around so it should be ready anytime. I will definitely post a pic when I get it back.

Very interesting buck

7mmfan · « **Reply #21 on:** April 09, 2009, 10:48:22 PM »

I think that it would be cool to find the shed from that little forehead point! that would definately qualify as smallest shed ever

I think because he realized its a ridiculous law. I've never seen any study or statistics that say there are fewer accidental shootings in a hunting situation because of hunter orange. Its just another example of how people who don't hunt are making all of the stupid rules!
