When do deer start losing their antlers? Has it started yet?

They usually shed in January and Febuary but I've heard that if the winter is really bad they can start as early as December. Maybe you didn't want me to answer this but I had to. (I'm pretty much a genius)

To my knowledge most deer tend to lose their antlers in late feb. and early march. I hunted last weekend and saw several small bucks and one nice eight point, all still with antlers. so in Oklahoma most still have their horns.
