Doe's with horns

[wapitimike1]

I have some crop tags for deer damage. I had perfect wind and weather last night. It worked out and I got lucky.  I thought I shot a giant button buck. Turned out to be a huge toothless old doe with small horns.
Has any one ever shot one of these oddities?
I was in a rush, usually I bring my camcorder but naturally didn't this time!
(Bill L's bitter)
 I think it might be a one in a million!
I already called the Taxidermist.

My Dad killed one man, many years ago in WVa. It was a spike doe, with about 10" spikes still in velvet.     Pretty cool.

This is a doe that hangs around the house...I have video footage of her two fawns suckling her.
I've been keeping it quiet because I don't want these Geogria rednecks trying to kill her.

Cool Mike, Did you at least get a picture?

I know a guy that shot his firstbuck which turned out to be a doe with spikes. He was a kid then and was disappointed ti find out it was a doe. He didn't realize how rare that is. Also, it was december and still was in velvet. I've found out that that is common for them to stay in velvet. Congratulations on your unusual trophy.

There is a mount of an 11 point doe that used to hang in the Texaco station in Tifton Georgia. There was a newspaper article about the deer framed along side of it.  Pretty cool.

A few years back I helped a guy drag out a bull-cow or cow-bull or ........? Anyway it was a cow elk with spikes.
There are some oddities out there.

Biggie- is this the first year you saw her. I'm wondering if she will shed the velvet.

[Marty]

Biggie, are you redneck enough to take her?

[wapiti792]

There was one killed in IN a few years back with a very abnormal narly velvet rack. From my understanding they never shed their velvet. Very neat.

Geesh Biggie - I thought you were a Georgia Redneck

A guy I worked with years ago claimed that he had taken one. I never saw it or any photos,but he wasn't the sort to tell embellish things.

Many years ago myself, brother Gene and Paul Brunner each took antlered does in MT with bows hundreds of miles apart but coincidentally all in one week if I remember correctly. BW

Cool thread! About ten years ago a friend of mine shot a mule deer with a smallish rack, still in velvet, at the end of November. That deer had a huge body. It wasn't a doe but a buck without any testicles. There is a hormone released that tells a buck to rub the velvet from his horns that isn't released in a doe or a buck with parts missing.

During shotgun season 2 years back, a guy tagged a ten point doe back by my old house in SE Ohio.

[Biggie Hoffman]

Mike, she didn't shed last year...still had velvet in November.

Marty, you notice I didn't tell YOU about her when you were here.....

[Marty]

I know where you live.......

I got one in 95.She was a big ol gal, I guess at 160 or so with a spikey 2x1 velvet rack.Ill try and get a pic scanned by weekends end.It was in those pre digital days.Oddly enough, I killed a bearded hen on the same hill the same fall.

I don't have one with antlers but i do have a doe scull with a K-9 tooth. Its very rare !!!

[wapitimike1]

Yes I did some pics.
I was a bit surprised when I rolled her over to she it was female. She has a big old noggen with no choppers left. She's pretty cool looking with typical doe facial features and velvet buttons sticking up.
