Default Buck still with antlers

Went to my land this weekend to listen for gobbling and saw several deer. One was a nice six pointer with both antlers intact.This is very unusual down here for this time of year. Anybody else seeing bucks still with antlers?

Our deer just dropped their antlers here in Wisconsin. So I guess I'll have to go out and look for some.

Here in Alabama - our deer are still chasing(our rut does not happen till the end of Jan)and still have their antlers - they should start to fall off by the end of the month and start new growth in June

I saw a 6 pointer last year in late April during turkey season that still had both sides here in KY![:'(] Im surprised he didn't have new nubs already coming in.

I have seen deer with their antlers still attached all the way into mid April.

I saw a 8 point here in Ohio last weekend. took a picture but it did not come out very good. just a small basket rack. but still might be a nice buck next year.
