could be number of reasons why one sided. got video's of a young 3 point from fews years past first year went 2 buck county. video was taken Nov. Aif remember right. an widest rack deer seen on hoof had both sides in late Jan. after rifle season ended. have seen two bucks chasing doe, one a legal 8pointer the other legal 4pointer only one side of rack, am thinking it had help dropping other side, memmory not best think it was middle of Dec. got it wrote down some place. would get a second opinion, my fredit is bad

A fellow hunter this past weekend shot what he thought was a doe. It was a small buck that had shed both sides. While looking for the deer. They found one side of his horns. It was a spike

Did you know that horns are permanent? So deer can't drop horns, bc they don't have them. And if you knew this, call then the right thing, it's not hard to do.

Whoa buddy

ive seen em already dropping

I assume TSU stands for Texas Southern? Show me one deer, any species of deer, that does not shed its antlers. I'll bet you're one of those who shoots a heifer claiming you thought it was a deer.

My bad antlers.

Umm, I can't show you a species, but thanks for furthering my point, I appreciate it.

No he is a Tarleton Grad. Unfortantly

.....think......Horns vs antlers......


But to answer your question......here you go

More of a condition though

I finally got it. I'm kinda slow some days.

Nothing like a little friendly conversation to relax a guy after a hard day at the office...

are all the bucks walking around one sided, or do some still have both sides some times the older, streased out from rutt will lose their antlers faster than rest. ones i have seen, may have lost one side in fight.

Boy that one went over your head!

ol' dish has a sour stomach and needs a glass of buttermilk. Laughing.

We were at a hunt on a high wire ranch last weekend and all the bucks had already shed. The owner told me that on a HF they shed sooner than on open range. It has something to do with how much they fight in the fall. My son went shed hunting and found some real good ones. picture later.

These are the sheds they found Sat. afternoon.

a few years ago, i had 4- 6 pt bucks moving thru here at the house, they were grouped up and all looked like twins, they were all identical, surprised me they still had horns it was first of march (souhern oklahoma)thats the latest i have seen antlers still on

think i've seen one or two with antlers end of Feb. beginning of March. i think its the work of sasquatch & the deer are mythical creatchers that are able ta make their horns fall off ta keep from being captured. trying ta get a Government grant ta do more resurch, but the men in black beet me too it
