Was looking at this deer for a while now. Haven't been able to see what was going on with his rack but this video shows it. Hard to tell what the injury is but the affect on his rack is apparent.

Grr....wrong video...will be back after technical difficulties are fixed!

And fixed....

Is it his right side that's hurt? I've heard if a deer is wounded on the left then his rack on his right side will grow abnormally and typically not grow much. Or someone could have been telling me a tall tale haha

It's true, a leg injury right or left side, will more often than not effect the opposite side of a bucks antlers.

His limp seems like the right side is hurt but it is hard to tell. Any other time it has been opposite side affected.
