    Caught this guy on camera over my mock scrape. What's up with his nose? It looks a little misshapen to me ImageUploadedByBowhunting.com Forums1446466058.155611.jpg

    I'm not 100%, But I think it is just a common trait of older deer around 3.5 and up...possibly genetic trait as well.

    Swollen from the hormones have seen puffy faces when the bucks are all jacked up for the rut.
