CONGRATS!

looks like a cactus buck to me, very unique and cool trophy

the bucks might have run away from her!!

Not a cactus buck! Cactus bucks never come out of velvet!

Are you going to mount it?

Thats cool and I hope you can mount it. Congrats

funny....


looks like a medusa deer

Nice deer, which tag did u use...

I wonder what a deer like this would look like as a euro mount, might be kinda cool.

that is crazy!

That is strange. I thought that if it was a doe that it would never come out of velvet. Not enough testosterone to harden the horns or something...

cool deal. sometype of gene deficiency i have read.

Congrats on a unique trophey.

what did she score

Congrats.. very suprising it was hard horned, but I think there was a big 8 shot last year in Brady that was hard horned.

That Doe's got a nice rack, congrats.

Cactus buck? Clue me in guys on this one. We have a 10 pointer on our ranch that is still in velvet. Saw him last year as well, do they shed their antlers each year but just do not shed the velvet?

wow, thats the stangest rack ive ever seen on a girl....

That needs to be on the news! Awesome! What county?

I didnt think we had a county called San Francisco. Man thats one wild deer thing.

so i wonder... could u have gotten a ticket if that was a buck only county?

No it would be considered a buck regardless of what is down stairs.

why do u say so...

o nvm, i got u, buck and anterless

Yeah, I could not think of the terms but this was discussed last year. That is the only reason I knew.

deer like these aren't scoreable. There must be a 'main frame' to go off of.

If it has horns, it has to be tagged as a buck in Texas.

Nice transie!

Cactus bucks never shed thier velvet or antlers! In real cold conditions some parts of the rack may freeze and break off, but they never actually shed the velvet or antlers! The antlers grow all year long!

I wish there was some way to score deer like that and come up with a square inch measurement. Like have a laser measure all the horn and them come up with a score. I think square inch would be better.

huh? Doe's can have antlers? I am confused.

Female deer can have antlers, it is a genetic defect and just as helo said, if a deer has antlers and they are not covered with skin and hair, they are tagged as a buck.

Seen a few in East Texas and they are generally quite large deer.

That was actually meant to be a serious question, haha. Should have reread before posting.

You can score them. I think they take the largest beam and call it the "main" beam. Then count everything else as abnormal points. It could be subjective though, as to which one is counted as the main beam. Would hate to be the scorer on that one.

That thing is crazy lookin. I wonder what it would score. Looks like alot of mass.

Cool doe. Congratulations.

If you have any more pictures from different angles, could you post them? Neat trophy. Thanks.

check with bass pro they will be very interested?

You could measure anything but it wouldn't be a score it would just be measurements. B&C will not score a deer unless it has a definitive main frame. That is just how the system was designed. Here is an article to another deer like this where it is stated that it couldn't be scored. http://www.ncgameandfish.com/hunting/whitetail-deer-hunting/NC_0905_01/

Cool. Thanks.

Where did you shoot her at?

Hey Steve, it's Craig, Michelles brother. Tanner was telling me about this deer this weekend and I was like ' I saw one like that on the THF".Cool deer

Meat may taste a little "gayme".....??? Anything?? Crickets???

That is a once in life time deer, with that rack formation. SWEAT!!!!!!!!!!!

Thats A FREAK

I read in a book a couple of years back I think it was called Whitetails by Rodney Marburger out of Kerrville. If I remember right they still have all their male organs but they will be located somewhere else in the body. just deformed
Will make a cool mount.

we shot a hermaphrodite on our lease too.. 9 point still in velvet.. had a milk sack and little man parts.

Seen it on 6th street in Austin [/quote]

Back when I was a kid 45 years ago when leases in Llano cost 150.00 per gun alot of the bucks would be still in velvet through January then drop their antlers.

full body m ount!

We do have Travis county and I'm sure it could be concieved there easily

Where did u kill her know a guy that killed one real similar to her up in Montague

Hell of a trophy

dude thats bigger than my buck this year!!!

She could be called Medusa. Isn't there one called that already?

Is that the same one that was shown in Texas fish and game?

Awesome buck...er. I mean doe!!! haha

buck or doe, either way, i wouldn't have thought about shooting or not...very nice.

dang man that is a awsome deer. congrats. i have learned alot by reading this thread. thank you
