[QUOTE="CaptnC, post: 2034725, member: 101755"] I've read in Dr Kroll's book that deer will copy an injury in his next set of antlers and that it will continue thru his life. No mention of it being hereditary, not saying it definitely is not. The deer in this photo has just shown up this year, I believe he is 3.5yo. We had one very similar last year that also looked to be 3.5yo[ATTACH type="full"]228948[/ATTACH] The above picture is from this year. [ATTACH type="full"]228951[/ATTACH] This is a buck from last year, he disappeared mid December so I fear he is not longer with us. Then the year before my wife shot a buck that was a 1x5... [ATTACH type="full"]228954[/ATTACH] As you can see it is on the opposite side...I'm certainly not saying it genetic, but who knows it could be?!? [/QUOTE]
