Want to see one tuff buck!

K.S.TRAPPER · December 06, 2011, 11:00:00 PM

We have been watching this buck for several years now and his name is "Crazy Legs" I think you can see why.

What ever happened to him it was when he was very young and he has adapted very well. He has always been a chaser and hits every scrape we have on this place. Sometimes it's even hard to tell it's him he runs so well on that leg.

Well he is 4 years old now and still doin just fine and still being a stud.

More pictures coming of him fighting.

Check out this fight and you can see how tuff he really is. He is one of my all time favorite bucks! :D

The winner gets the scrape and maybe the girl!! :D

They are amazing animals.... Thanx for sharing

You'd do him no favor if you killed him. He's somewhat handicapped and entirely remarkable but he doesn't know it. You should let him go and continue to enjoy him just as he is.

What an interesting animal. I'd have a hard time shooting him, he just has too much character; more than a set of horns or freezer filler.

I had an odd encounter with a doe earlier this season; I literally had the string back at 8 yards and was ready to drop it but I didn't. She busted me and put on a show, then hung around to 'evac' the clueless yearling following her around (who never knew I was even there). Was just something about her behavior; she had guts and I admire that. If I were to encounter her again (and I think I did at long range once), I'd let her pass with a nod. To me at least, the world is a more interesting place with such spirits in it.

nice buck indeed. Keep him a live! and see how he does on the long time!

He's had enough time to pass on his traits, don't let him die of old age or get chewed up by predators. Dump him if you get the chance, and put his pics around his rack and make a bow rack from his feet!

Cool old buck, tough for sure.

Those are some cool pics!

That is cool I would have a hard time dropping the string on him. Like flyfishing if the trout fights to the bitter end or fights above his weight class he always lives to fight another day. Cool buck though

"Let him live".....because he broke his leg, he should get a free pass? Seriously?

Tracy never shoots young bucks, he lets any he see's grow up no matter if they have a healed up leg or not. He's got the pix to prove it.

It's easy to do when you live in KS and have the bucks he does.

"Crazy legs" is a mature 4.5 years old stud now...

I know Tracy very well, and he's been sharing pix of that buck since the very first time he got them. He may pass him up to let him get a little bigger, but I doubt he'd pass him up just because he's survived a broken leg.

Guru · December 07, 2011, 04:50:00 AM

By the way buddy, never get tired of seeing his pix!

Only way they could get better is with you sitting behind him

December 07, 2011, 05:47:00 AM

id say hes a shooter now, 4.5 yrs thats plenty old, hes mature now. takem if ya can! :D

Plumber · December 07, 2011, 06:26:00 AM

thanks for showing those pics

K.S.TRAPPER · December 07, 2011, 07:06:00 AM

Curt is right he is a mature deer now and are bucks get a free ride till they turn 4yrs old. Like he said I can do that around here, Some make it another year or two and some don't and it's taking a chance that I might not see them again because there are plenty of other hunters around.

I would really like to see what this buck will do with one or two more years of growth but if he gives me a perfect shot I will take it. As somebody else already said I have plenty of picks of him growing up and how tuff he really is so I would be proud to take this fine animal.

This is the first year that he has grown browtines and I thought for sure he was going to grow up and be a big 6pt so I was happy for him when I seen those G1's this year. :D

They are so tough. But I suppose living outside every day of the year helps with that. Adapt or die.
Thanks for sharing.
