Squirrelhunter91 Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 I just received these pics from a buddy of mine from his trail cams... This buck appears to have a broken front right leg. I'm almost positive that the antler growth is messed up due to his injury. Will this buck ever become "normal" again or should he be culled right away? It still has it's velvet on in these pics. Just about every buck I've seen that is "normal" has been out of velvet since late August. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravin R10 man Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 Re: Should this buck be culled? Any deer that comes in injured should be put down asap..YES shoot that buck!!!

VermontHunter Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 Re: Should this buck be culled? YEP....Have to agree with Martin on this one....forget the antlers or anything else this deer is injured and needs to be put down humanely and quick as possible.......Makes some good freezer meat, why let it suffer or let the dogs get him....JMHO...

dogdoc Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 Re: Should this buck be culled? that would be a humane cull in my opinion. I have seen deer with injuries to legs recover but that looks like a pretty tough injury. That young buck looks pretty thin also for this time of year. todd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckee Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 Re: Should this buck be culled? Yeah, put the poor guy out of his misery. He's hurtin real bad. His antlers are deformed, because his body is working so hard trying to heal him. Poor fella Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerdanmagic Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 Re: Should this buck be culled? Not even a question in my opinion. I'd try to take him the first chance I get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thayer Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 Re: Should this buck be culled? Oww! That has got to hurt. I took a doe a couple of years ago that was limping thru the woods...her left front foot was gone. Must have been lost in a fence. She still ate very well. Cull him!

Dakota Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Re: Should this buck be culled? Put him down, immedietly! You'll have some good meat and he won't survive the winter. I have a buck on the "lease" that I hunt that has been hit by a car. He's hit bad and I think he probably won't survive any encounters with the coyotes. It's a shame though, he's a basic 4-by-4 with some good length. You gotta do what you gotta do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest lostiniowa Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Re: Should this buck be culled? it would be humane to harvest him the dnr might even give you another tag for him?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
