More than likely a took a nice G2 during the rut. Just my .02 Be calm brother, I see you and thank you. Your spirit and body nourish mine. Be calm brother; I see you and thank you.

Apparently there is a 1-3 inch spot that looks like it would be perfect shot placement. Never found the buck until the year after. Died of old age and not disease. More than likely its a rut wound.Is there an exit wound? Just my .02 You may all go to hell and I will go to Texas! -Davy Crocket This is duck hunting...shirts and shoes are optional

And from the look of those funky horns, and the healed scar, that might have been a wound from last year that made him sprout that mass. My bet is that he is still very much alive.
