Very nice Don, did you find his sheds?

If you find those antlers you could get a couple hundred dollars for them Don.

Very nice Don, did you find his sheds? No, I have not really looked. He is in about 10 acres with some Ibex and WT. There is only about an acre that is brushy. I don't like going in there because everything gets goofy and running around like crazy.

So how does an axis shedding and growing their antlers compare to a whitetail? I've heard that they grow them based on when they're born. I have no idea. My wife and I shot 3 two weeks at my family's place near Mason. One was a buck but had just nubs. The other two were does. They were LF free range and a bonus to see. Fantastic eating
