100% velvet injury this summer. On my place with the really good left side I would let him go another year. I have one like that this year and on the same side.
Are idiots multiplying faster than normal people?

This buck was a normal looking 8 pt the year before this. If you like that buck there is nothing wrong with killing him if he is legal. Some people like freaky looking bucks. I prefer more typical bucks.

nope he will get a pass this year. My first thoughts were getting him out of the gene pool because I had never seen anything like this before. thus the question if he would make 13". I would much rather wait until the right side catches up to the left side.

Do not think he will make the 13" inside, would give him a pass until next year anyways.

Wonder if all the other deer make fun of him

They probably do. Maybe I will get lucky and find his sheds next year.
Questions for the group...What exactly does a velvet injury mean and how does it happen? Is is as simple as he rubbed up against something while it was soft???

Maybe I'm on my own but I like the freaky/unique ones. Would make a great mount, despite his age.

I haven't seen one like this before either. I think you're wise to wait - he could turn into something you wouldn't second guess on. I did stumble on an unusual yearling yesterday. Curious to see how he develops too.

Had one like that with a velvet injury last season. He was only three so we let him go to see if the bad side would come back to normal. I wouldn't call it normal just yet, but he's grown a full beam and some tines this season. I'll try and post up some photos of him tonight.
