JamesVee Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 The more days that go by the darker and smaller the back right leg on this buck gets. He showed up at 9:00 this morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muggs Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 Re: Big Bass Nine, Bad Leg That's a shame, that buck has potential. If he makes it to bow season, put an arrow through him and help him out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun_300 Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 Re: Big Bass Nine, Bad Leg Nice buck, a timberwolf will probably get him though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogdoc Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 Re: Big Bass Nine, Bad Leg it's amazing how well 3 legged animals do---i wouldn't right him off quite yet--he still has a big body and doesn't seem to be showing any affect except for the necrotic leg. The leg will eventually slough off. The upper thigh looks fine. Odd's are still against him but who knows--I've seen a few 3 legged deer in my time. todd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NY_Bowhunter14 Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 Re: Big Bass Nine, Bad Leg he is pretty much three legged, so i would say he has a fair chance of survival, that is until deer season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VtBowhunter Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 Re: Big Bass Nine, Bad Leg I'm wondering if he got something wrapped around that leg at some point and it killed the nerves and all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_Bubbles Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 Re: Big Bass Nine, Bad Leg dang, shoot that big boy before a yote gets him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 Re: Big Bass Nine, Bad Leg Have seen a few 3 legged deer around here over the years. Chances are, if I saw that buck during season I would likely shoot him 3 legged or 4 legged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
