Even though Major was an experienced hunter in this part of southwest Oklahoma, he had never come across a deer with velvet-covered antlers before. He said this was a rare sight because the hunting season in Oklahoma starts later than in many other places. So, it's not common to find deer with bucks in velvet this late in the year.
Major expressed his excitement about this unique hunting opportunity, saying, "We don't get a chance to kill them in velvet because our season starts so late around here. That's why I was so excited to get this one. I've heard about cactus bucks and seen photos of a few, but nothing that crazy with all the trash."
