No wonder you midwest fellas get such huge bucks, they practically grow antlers all year.;). No, but seriously here in the wv northern panhandle i dont usually start seeing the antlers start til may.

I have only been getting a pic of one animal that hadn't lost both horns yet and he was a young 8 pointer that has carried his right side now for over a month. It's about right though, I generally see bucks every Turkey seaon with "stumps".

RE: antlers
 

That is as early as I have ever seen horns starting to grow. Here in Southeast Va., I have not seen any growth yet. I bet we will see growth within the next month.

RE: antlers
 

when do the antlers reach the point that they are fully grown?

RE: antlers
 

It depends, but from what i've seen usually in the month of August, give or take a month depending on your location.
