Since moose loose their antlers, they start growing them right away.
The correct answer depends on what time of the year you saw the bull moose. After the Fall rutting season the antlers fall off. The moose will then grow a new set of antlers in the Spring.

Three mammals whose males shed their antlers would be deer, elk, and moose.
Moose typically shed their antlers in the late fall or early winter, around November or December. This shedding process is triggered by changes in daylight and hormone levels. Once shed, moose will begin growing new antlers for the next mating season.

i was out on Jan 3rd and i noticed a bull moose with the antler missing on the right side there were 5 moose with him at the moment 3 bulls and 2 calfs the other two bulls had both antlers still so one thing i do no is that the moose in our area don't lose there antlers till the first week in janurary =========================================================== Also, moose lose their antlers in the beginning of winter and regrow them back at the beginning of spring. Cow moose (females) do not have antlers in the first place. Also, some small animals feed on the antlers when they are shed because the antlers are high in calcium. Hope this helped! Paladin89
Look for the antler buds, or the places on either side of the forehead in front of the ears where antlers should've, would've or will be. This is especially helpful if it's a time of year where moose have lost their antlers completely. Presence of antlers in moose is sex-linked, which means only males are capable of having them. You may also notice a moose having furry-like protrusions sticking up from their heads. These are antlers in the process of growing, and also indicative of the sex of the animal. Basically though, bulls (males) have antlers; cows (females) do not.
Moose use their antlers primarily for mating displays and fighting during the rutting season. They will also use their antlers to defend themselves or their territory from predators or other moose. Additionally, moose may use their antlers to forage for food by pushing aside branches or vegetation.
