Is that what’s known as a murderer buck?

Not strictly, murder bucks develop generally single spikes, that looks like an animal who’s antlers show signs of going back and losing points resulting in something dangerous to other bucks but not a true “murder” buck. Amazing how many yearling bucks get shot every year with folk claiming to have taken a great cull animal because of the damage it could do when nearly every young buck will grow spikes in their first head. On that basis every young red spiker should be shot on sight.
Looks like he’s seen better days.

This would be a murder buck in the true sense of the term….
Are the coronets joined…?

I don't think so - if you zoom right in you can see a little bit of daylight through the antlers.

It’s a cracking pic. Will you be removing him soon?
Not my ground sadly - a local nature reserve.
He would certainly be a good one to take out.
Only one way to really tell, and I don't think that'll be happening any time soonBetter eyesight than me Dom…
