well for as long as I can rmember I have always had a few that seem to hold on to them till late march
so this is , well normal I guess
most do drop by now,found the fist shed this yr, in Dec>
they say, they drop them based on does being breed and well, each bucks make up is different
so to me
the light/easy winter really has no effect on dropping of antlers,
just comes down to the buck, to me ,
some just seem to hold them Longer
for unknown reasons if you ask me
as over the yrs I have sen a few bucks drop one side and the other stayed on for weeks before dropping the other side on the same deer ???
