2021 Meat Pole

Shot this "wanna be" buck opening weekend of bow season in the Texas Hill Country. Have a 2500 acre lease in Mason County and probably close to 5% of whitetail bucks in this particular area are afflicted with cryptorchidism. Their testicles never drop and horns stay in velvet and continue to grow all year. I've heard the cause could be anything from genetics to diet, but no one really knows for sure. It is a complete mystery. We have contacted Universities and even Dr. James Kroll (the deer doctor) and no one seems to be able to figure it out. This is the biggest set of horns I have seen on one to date. This one was quartering away pretty hard. The arrow lodged into the opposite front shoulder and he/she went about 5 yards. I love that kind of tracking job 😄
