First sheds of the year! - 01/13/17 02:07 AM

Found these at the feeder today while checking the camera. We have 4 bucks that have shed on camera. The first buck shed 12-27-16. I haven't looked for the others yet. According to the camera these fell 1-8-17.

Does seem a bit early. I thought that last year too. But I found my first ones 1-13-16 last year.

These sheds were off of a 6.5-7.5 yr old going down hill.

Thanks Sapper, I almost love this time of year more than hunting season. Lol.

Yep and it surprises me every year how early it seems. Bucks where I'm at hold on to them until mid march

They shed up here from now til April around turkey season. So I don't go walking through beddin areas til later on. It seems most of our big bucks drop from now to Spring Break'ish.

Cool photos. The best I've ever found were in my own yard at the house, one about 25 yards from the front door. Gotta love suburbia.
