Unique trophy.. A doe with antlers.

[GRH]

I shot this deer opening morning.. I thought it was a nice buck.. Well when I rolled it over to field dress it.. It's a doe. Couldn't believe it..

The term for this is hermaphrodite, it happens in nature . You should have taken a full body pic, so we could see where the twig and berries should be

This may sound wierd, but she has a NICE rack!

[BryanL]

Nice deer. What's sticking out of its neck?

[BryanL]

Must just be a stick on the ground in the first pic. I posted too quick and noticed it wasn't there in the bottom pics.

It is a nice buck, or um doe.

must be pumping some sort of testosterone neck is a little swelled and obviously has been rubbing, every antlered doe i've seen pictures of never shed their velvet and had a skinny doe neck.

[GRH]

Rick G.. I did, wasn't sure if it was ok to post..

[eyeguy 54]

post it. it can always get zapped if needed.

looks more like a buck with no junk than a doe with a rack.

I've seen and read the same thing. Must not always be true though I guess. Could it possibly have had a gender change from not jumping high enough over a fence? Seems like too nice of a rack for a doe. They usually have really thin racks with no mass I any pictures I have seen. Either way really nice........ doe? Buck? I'll just call it a deer!

This is why the regs say 'antlered' and 'antlerless' not 'male' and 'female.' What a cool deal. Thanks for sharing the pics... Rolling it over must have been a real 'what the...what?" moment.

[bltbowhunter]

Wow. That's awesome!

[DrJuice1980]

Did you name her Chaz?

[Rick G]

Rick G.. I did, wasn't sure if it was ok to post..

Post it! It would be educational

[fowldreams]

I just want to know how the herd reacted. She get bred? If so, what were the other bucks thinking? Wow, that has to be rare.

[Wes Ellis]

Great deer! It was funny I was talking to Nate's Boss and he said Nate's cousin shot a nine point doe and I said I'm looking at in as we speak.

[RangerJack]

need to see the genitalia...lol

I'm guessing there are a few curious bucks out there that might swing that way.

That would be hilarious to know what was going on in their heads.

Doe/Buck #1 - "If you're gonna breed me...you're gonna have to fight me first!"

Buck #2 - "Say What!"

Here's a few more pics

Thanks everyone.. Yeah I could not believe it when I rolled her over.. I emailed the dnr. This is the response I got..

We do here and see antlered doe’s occasionally, but rarely do the antlers have much if any resemblance of being so symmetrical.

Most times the antlers are there, but all messed up, sometime with velvet still on them and actually pretty ugly when it comes to antlers, but the one you got has a very nice rack. Congrats.

Must be a castrated buck that escaped from a deer farm

Congrats

[B-man715]

Very cool!

"It" will be a deer you will never forget

[Archerysniper]

Thank you for the extra pic's. I noticed it doesn't look like she has mammary gland's also but it is clearly a doe.
