Not sure why, they weren't stags either. Maybe stress from past winters Wayne?

Mine was a bit later than this though. I got it on the last day of December during bow season. I was a little surprised to find that it still had velvet. I always wondered why he was still in velvet. I figured something more important was occupying his time during the period when he should have been rubbing his antlers on trees.

His testicle sack seemed damaged for some reason. Only in nature.... the best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago, the second best time is today

Either he is a way better shot with a rifle than a shotgun or 2. He had help or 3. This is photoshopped , notice how his fingers conveniently cover part of the tag Nice deer Lech , couldn't resist

We have been seening a lot more of this recently, I'm not sure if there are more bucks out there or just that more hunters are reporting it. One common feature to all that I have been involved with is the testicles are very small for some reason, thus less testosterone production which contributes to softer antlers and no urge to rub because of no rutting stimulus. My son Trevor's youth buck taken on Sept 24th was in velvet later than I expected. (It had smaller than average testicles) I took a buck in Montana several years ago at the end of Octobter that was still in velvet and had a soft spongy rack, again, small peanut sized testicles. kevin also mention that a friemd of ours took a buck that had a soft spongy rack, may the oil field traffic and chemialcs are having an effect???? I'm checking with one of the biologists for additional info. Wayne "Destiny is not a Matter of Chance, but a Matter of Choice'

I put a stalk on a full velvet 4x4 the last weekend before the rifle season. I got within 30 +/- yards from him but couldn't see him through the brush. Just curious if it would happen to be the same deer. Opie
