Antlers

[Elendeor]

Ok, thanks to everyone who helped me with the knife blanks, im now thinking of the handle and quite fancy putting antler onto it. Does anyone know what time of year deers lose their antlers? Does it matter which species they are? or where abouts in the country i am?
Thanks

deer shed their antlers between march and may but some may shed theirs before or after this time and no there are deer populations all over the country and mainly in estates and deer parks
