Wi velvet buck
Saw this small buck still in velvet during my hunt. Is this normal? I’m guessing that it is for younger bucks...

Cool!
Every so often someone kills a velvet buck in Wisconsin, but I do think it's rare.

The 8 that was with my buck was still in velvet. A guy posted a mature MN buck on Fb today still in velvet. They’re hanging on to it later than normal.

Re: Wi velvet buck
I agree I have seen a few velvet 1.5 yr olds the past few days here in WV. I typically always see older bucks shedding late august/early september but the young ones hold it awhile

Awesome! Nothing beats seeing a huge smile on a young hunter’s face when they get one.

That’s really cool.
Can’t wait to see this weekend if anyone sees deer still in velvet.

Re: Wi velvet buck
Actually haven't seen a hard horned buck yet in Michigan. All have been in full velvet, not even peeling yet. Never seen them hang on to velvet this late.

Re: Wi velvet buck
Everything iv seen in michigan is hard horn now except for the one i posted about the other day, saw him again tonight and hes still full velvet. The deer acts kinda strange, he stays by himself even when theres a bunch of deer out and he just moves slow it seems, i wonder if something is off with this deer.
