Those having issues could try the tested and true savescum trick. Save before killing reindeer (make sure it's not a deer), load if antlers are not dropped.

Hello everyone!
Thank you for reaching out to report this issue with male reindeer not dropping antlers for the "A Mild Hunt" quest.
I went on the hunt for antlers myself just last night, and while it did seem impossible at first, I think the antlers are just a rare drop. After killing between 15-20 male reindeer, I eventually collected the three antlers I needed. When hunting the reindeer, please make sure you're hunting the large deer with antlers and mane, not a doe (female deer) that are smaller. If you continue to experience issues with procuring the antlers, please keep track of how many you're eliminating and let us know. It would also be helpful to know whether you have already spoiler as well! Personally I had already done so and still managed to acquire the antlers.
Sadly, though, I couldn't find the quest giver to give them back, so I'm in the same boat as many of you on that front! To those experiencing this issue, please rest assured I've reported it to see whether it is intended that the quest giver disappears after completing a certain action, going to England and returning, etc.Official Response -

@zlaxtiel the picture you posted was of a deer and not a reindeer, they have a different set of antlers
-
@zlaxtiel yep, I have killed a couple dozen, not one antler, but this after killing the legendary elk.

Drop rate is still an issue for me as of today. I've killed about 20 reindeer so far (and yes, I know the difference between Rudolph and Bambi, thank you very much), and still no drops. Don't care about the quest anymore, but would like the antlers for hunter turn-ins...

@rensrecluse yup, there’s your full sized bucks (red and white tails) you see everywhere which don’t drop antlers then there’s the reindeer (big suckers, think Santa’s reindeer) once the player learns to identify the reindeer and their locations antlers are easy findings
-
@otg_gilamunsta also i noticed better drop rates for rare items if you use the hunting bow and hit their weak spots, ie a clean kill
-
The problem persists in England, I managed to get the three in Norway, but I've killed countless deer in England and have yet to get any antlers, these are needed for hunting requests in Raventhrope.

@grungeandgaze i've killed like 10reindeer around hamtunscire or whats the name 7 drops for me. sooo havent experienced any bugs with that to be honest. make sure its a reindeer and not a deer. i've hunted most of mine around the text " hamtunscire "on the map and north from that good luck guys.

@zlaxtiel not a bug, today (many hours after i killed the legendary elk), i found a reindeer IN ENGLAND right next to my camp on the shore. Killed it and got an antler right away. It was only the third reindeer i killed (and also found) so far, the two others were next to Valka's hut in Norway, but they never respawned as long as i was in Norway and they didn't drop any antlers for me.

I could not get 3 reindeer antlers for the initial hunting quest, despite killing over 50 reindeer who visibly had antlers. I now can't get any to drop to hand in to Wallace either.

@sempophai Hey! We can look into this for you.
- Is this for the "Mild Hunt" quest?
- Have you already left for England, or not yet?
- Were you able to acquire any antlers?
- Are you able to provide a short video to present the issue?
Thank you! -
@ubi-raziel It was initially for the mild hunt mission, but, having given up on that mission due to lake of antler drops, I find I can't get any for wallace either, having killed a lot of reindeer that visibly have antlers, but never drop any.
