Default Ok HORNS OR ANTLERS????

Thought this would be different to see what people to say? Let's say your walking through the wood with your buddy and a huge buck jumps up what are you going to say

"Did you see the__________ on that deer???"

And no "Rack" is not considered a logical answer here!

I would say rack, but just for the sake of simplicity, we'll go with the correct answer of, antlers.

Given the choices, i would say horns... antlers is just too Nugent for me

"Did you see the magnificent, magical, majestic, spiritual, antlers on that white-tailed male buck??!"

Antlers of course. They're not horns.. horns are completely different. Different by composition.. growth rate.. animal they belong too...

Does this Q really have to be asked.?

i know they are technically called antlers, and often say antlers, but still use horns pretty often...

for some reason, antlers is hard for me to say sometimes lol...almost sounds "too scientific" or something lol..and everyone i talk to in person tends to say horns...

i cant vote...i say both alot...but if me and my buddies jumped a buck, i betcha id say RACK!

I say horns. We all know they are antlers, but the local slang is horns. Always has been.
