Snake bit buck?

[meangreen04]

Wow. Glad he's out of his misery. Nice buck.

[K. Lane]

nice buck and glad he is out of his misery but that is crazy. Never have I seen that before

[TMC50]

Never seen that before!

[Peacock]

Wow! Never seen anything like it before

[arrowsonly88]

That's a first! Very nice buck.

[quackaholic1]

I;ve never seen anything like it. Glad he is out of his misery.

[Steady_Hand]

Glad y'all got him! Great deer.

[Frederick D. Be]

Good on your son for putting him down. That would appear to be a snake bite but someone else that really knows needs to chime in. This is a first for me seeing a deer like this.

[Kill zone]

No more suffering for him. Good job.

[Bradical BH]

Buck barely had any muscle structure. No way we would eat a deer that sick.

X2 No doubt about it. No way I'd feed my family with that meat. Glad he was put out of misery. Congrats to son. To bad his antler came off.

[Niko]

That leg looks horrible.

This exactly. I know there are some very educated guys on here about this kind of thing. Curious to see if anyone knows for certain or has seen this before.

[Raider Power]

That's crazy! Very nice buck though. Hopefully a taxi can repair the broken antler.

I shot a real nice 8 point years ago that had a bullet wound through his hind quarters. Both his antlers fell off when I started to drag him to the truck. I guess they start to shed them when injured.
