Let's See The Freaks

[spin05]

I took this one with my bow a few years back.Not weird horns but look at what is left of the ears.He also had one eye that was white like a cue ball. My wife accuse me of shooting a handicaped deer....

Well, I guess I can add a few to this thread 

This first buck is a buck I called in and killed on the most *censored*y day of hunting season, super stormy and rainy , trees falling down....you get my drift. I called in from work that morning  Killed him just after a  break in the weather.



This Next buck is my very first "Freak" buck. I watch him before season and knew he was the one I wanted. Killed him the first week like clockwork. I did not mount the buck , it was before I was doint Taxidermy back in 95'



This Buck would have lived if he wouldnt have looked up at me on the last day of season . I was on my way out and just happened to catch 2 deer below me in a cut, so I glassed them up and this guy was standing there, super nice spike. Iy was one of the bigger longhorns I have seen and figured he might have good potential if he made it through a few seasons and then he looked up at me and I saw the drop horn.....I couldnt resist  It had been a tough season that year , I missed a real nice 3 point (I dont miss  ) and passed on some smaller 3's looking for a good buck.

And this last buck is one I called in for my wife, All I had to say is  "Its a retard" KABOOM  She knew what I meant

 spin05...I shot a muley this years and his left ear had a huge chunk gone. Well over half of his ear. but it was lengthwise and not short and stubby like yours. Did your buck come with a hearing aid? With those short ears, I am suprised he could hear anything.

Wyoming a few years ago. Also has a sticker on the same side as the extra point.

I'm pretty sure those downward pointing pronghorn horns are caused by a shed from the prior year not coming off correctly.  Then as the new horn grows in, it pushes the old horn off.  However the weight of the old horn causes the new horn to tip downward.  That would explain both the downward point, and the kinda mushed up shape.

The gun shop in Gillette Wyoming has a full body mount of a pronghorn with the old sheds sitting under the new growth, hanging downward like that.  I'll try to get a photo when I go back in October.
