A ranger once told me the buck I shot with a deformed rack was a "bastard" buck from inbreeding and he was glad I had culled it from the herd.
Your "chupacraba" has canines.......hmmmm......must be a distant relative to the jack-a-lope.
Do you think young deer with funky racks need to be taken to preserve the gene pool?

so,what i get from the experts is shoot the does! thats what i have been doing the last few years. get some meat in the freezer then wait for some stud to walk by. its actually lead to more quality time in the stand. some years you get a decent deer and other are spent observing.
I will shoot a MATURE deer that has an inferior rack, unless I dont want to burn that tag.
About the only Buck we are trying to thin out of our place is a mature Half rack. He only shows up so offten and is normally out of range but when he comes in range he will be meet in the freezer for sure!
I shot a 4xfork a couple years ago, pics are on the forum somewhere. When I stripped the skin off the skull he had a funky growth of bone on the fork side. I just thought he looked cool.
