Looks like a regular muley with a screwey left antler to me :dunno:  Nice buck though...If he survives the season and the wolves, he'll be a stud come next fall, screwey antler or not..

Shhhhhhhh...  We don't call them  "pesticides" we refer to them as "eco friendly pest deterrent solutions".  That way the hippies don't get bent out of shape and camp out in the orchards when it is time to spray.  :rolleyes:

Oh good... I thought those things were bad for you...

...incidentally, I eat a lot of apples, and I am starting to grow a horn that looks a lot like that buck's left side... :chuckle: :chuckle:

Looks like a muley but I have seen a few Muletails (muley/whitetails) and I have seen hundreds of Benchleg bucks (muley/blacktail ) in central OR. Nice Buck keep posting pics!

mule deer or benchleg crosses with whitetails are less than 1% occurance.  It's nearly impossible for whitetails to breed with anything other than whitetails.  Cool deer none the less.

The year before last on my land in Ferry County there was a whitetail doe with twin mule deer fawns on her. They were definitely hers because they were both nursing.  It does occasionally happen but it is pretty rare.

I agree with the above posts. Mule deer with just a non-typical left side.
