Latest Date You've Seen A Whitetail With Antlsers

Today I took a walk behind the house and I saw six Whitetails this evening. The last one that came through, still had half of his rack. Looked like it was an 8 to 10 pointer last fall.
This may be more common further south but here in New York it is very late. Just wondering, anyone else seen one this late in the season before.

There is a store near me that had captive whitetails for a long time. (too many regulations now) I remember one year a buck in their pen had antlers until late in April. Don`t remember the exact date, but it was towards the end of April.

In the southern Adirondacks I have see bucks with racks in late March,early April. I have also seen bucks with 8"or 9" of horn in velvet on St. Patricks day. They are just like people all different and unique!

Last weekend my wife & I were coming back from going out for dinner. We live in the NW lower peninsula of Michigan and as we took the back way to our house in a residentail area there were three deer standing in the road and as they ran back toward a small chunck of woods the lead deer had a full rack! It was a small 6 point rack, 3x3 for you western people, I'm thinking of going back to get pictures. It may be a doe or maybe a male with some sort of injury to it's gonads. I doubt it can be a normal buck since not 20 miles away my brother shot a deer in December that turned out to be a buck that already dropped it's antlers and I have trial camera pics around the same time that shows a buck that dropped antlers.

We've got two inside our house that keep their rack year round, but they dropped the back 2/3 other their body sometime in November.

I saw the 6 point about a week and a half after this picture and he still had both sides. Notice the 8 pointer in front.

I forget the exact date, but it was early or mid April when I saw a full racked buck in the late 90's.

Hi, I drive the school bus in the moring here in ND and while on the route, I saw one with antlers about 2 weeks ago. I have never seen one that late here in ND.

I saw an 8pt with his full rack intact in mid March 2009 - almost ran him over on my way to work one morning. That is pretty late to see one hear in MN like that!

We saw a big 8 point in a field next to a flooded river last weekend. My husband almost drove off the road.
