If a button buck breaks his lower jaw does it mess his antler growth up for the next year? Or every year? Not sure what happened he was the only deer in the pen that was hurt. He may have hit the fence while playing or the breeder buck in the next pin might not like him sniffing around his pen not real sure. He is eating some and it looks like he is slowly getting alittle more movement back.

Bob, Martrygraw lived his whole life with a badly broken jaw. I'm sure if he had not injured himself he would have grown a better rack. He did stay very typical with an occasional drop or sticker and scored over 200" every year. One thing I do know is he produces as good as any.
