I'm not gonna shoot this joker but wondering if he is legal. Would he qualify as "at least one unbranched antler" ?

Appears to have two unbranched antlers so therefore he is double legal

Illegal.Comment

I don't think I would chance that one.

Letter of the law: legal
Intent of the law:illegal
Note: IF NOT CONNECTED. looking close could be connected.... which would change the “letter of law” to illegal as well
Clear as mud

I know. I hate young deer with multiple main beams. They never turn into anything....Originally posted by SC-Texas View PostComment

I've got a similar deer on my property. I'd also like to remove him, but don't want to risk it.Comment

Probably damaged in velvet. Very seldom is it genetic.Comment

He's legal. He's has one unbranched antler.
Unless they are off the same main beam.
I wouldn't chance it. Can't tell from that pic for sure.Last edited by AntlerCollector; 10-09-2019, 08:28 AM.Comment

It all comes down to that connection. Looks connected to me but hard to say for sure.
Didn't think of it until now but I guess that would make any unicorn bucks with an extra pedicle you unbranched antler buck regardless of the size of the rack. Letter-of-the-law loophole there.Comment

Ya, I cant tell without a doubt that they arent connected at the base. He is only a two year old deer and I have no intention of killing him this year, but just wondered what yalls thoughts were as far as even being a legal deer.Comment
