Ive seen several white tailed bucks with antlers still on over the last two weeks .

Some I saw behind a HF in central TX
Isn't it a little for them to still have not shed?

No. Most of the deer in the Hill Country really don't start to shed till around the March 15th and most are done by last week of March-1st of April.

Every potential trophy buck needs "another year";)

Bucks dropping antlers is kinda' like trying to predict the weather. And I'm talking that "global warming" crap. Some drop early, others hang on forever.

I still see bucks with antlers.


It is far more important to be able to hit the target than it is to haggle over who makes a weapon or who pulls a trigger.
