Some Bucks Shedding Antlers Already

While a lot of bucks can hold their antlers well into February and March, every year we hear of bucks shedding early.It’s been a few years since I have gotten trail cam pictures of a shed buck this early, but I was lucky enough to get pictures of one when I checked my Reconyx HC600 this past weekend here in Wisconsin. 

From the looks of this buck, he appears to be a 1.5 or 2.5 year old and doesn’t seem to have any visible injuries.

Bowhunting.com customer Steve Renner one-upped me and actually found a shed on December 9th of this year.  Congrats Steve on a neat find and it looks like this buck has a lot of potential!
