Buck or doe?
« on: January 01, 2014, 12:45:36 am »
This deer looked kind of funny to me.  After looking at the picture for a minute I think it might be a doe with antlers.  I zoomed in on the "goods" and I'm not sure what it is.  Any guesses?

Looks like a teet that has been used. Strange. She probably feels like she has to compete with all those bucks around there and sported a set of antlers >:D

A friend of mine who has since passed on shot a 4-point doe. I think they usually still carry the velvet but, maybe not always. You better shoot it and find out. >:D

Clint, I hunt on a place outside of Llano Texas that has an unusual number of "Stags" as they are known around here.  Some are bucks with no testicles and some are does with antlers???  Always in velvet.  Some of them have pretty big racks, just really knarly.  Most have the body shape of a doe.  It's not uncommon on this place to have several stags on your feeder at one time.  Really bizarre as I've only seen a handful in my entire life before I started hunting here.  This one looks hard horned.

Looking at the picture last night we couldn't really decide either way.  It almost looks like another teat above the one.  Or it could be a buck with shrinkage like Pearly said.  Maybe he just went for a swim in the pond  ;D

There is not a second deer behind it.

That's a male deer. They have a more pronounced white band around the nose. Also the nose appears broader like a male deer has. I watched two young deer for a week and determined one was a doe and the other a male. At the end of the hunt, I shot one and another guy shot the other one. I was right about them being a doe and male. A static picture like that makes it harder to judge, but my guess is a male deer.

Either way next time you see it shoot it and get that scrubby little thing out of the gene pool.  :)

I have heard of deer that were not what they seemed to be. If this is a transgendered deer, who did the surgery?
