saw a muley buck yesterday who still had an antler

[outdoorsman812]

I went out bear hunting yesterday but saw no bears. I did see 9 mule deer, one of which was a buck (2 1/2 year old last fall) that still had his left antler on. Its a bit late, i had to look twice because i thought my eyes were playing tricks. I watched him for quite a while along with the others he was with.

Nice to see all the deer ,good for you. Yes and your right ,you would think that the antlers would be off buy now ,maybe he is still carrying them to empress the ladies he hangs around with ,LOL :lol:.

Are you sure it wasn't a strap on?

all the deer around here have shed. its very cool to watch the group dinamicts with no antlers in sight only testosorone and size to to measure up to.
where about are you located ,is it the long wet or cold influenceing the sheds.

happy glassing.

Kamloops area, it has been a very long and cold spring compared to usual. It might be affecting them.

deer drop their antlers so they can recover from the rut and survive the winter...if its a mild winter they drop later...
