WEIRD!! Got a friend who had a buck lose an eye from fighting.................Next year he grew a third horn out of his missing eye hole!
Whoa! That is really odd, since there was another buck that had a similar occurrence it really makes you wonder what makes that happen!

It is probably the result of the buck stimulating that area by rubbing. They can stimulate antler growth anywhere on their skull. Why he was rubbing there is anyone's guess.
Cells from the pedicle, in scientific studies, have been place on numerous portions of the whitetails body including hips, legs etc... It is simply amazing where the can growing.
