Two of my 'every day' bucks showed up after this morning before daylight hard horned. Both these bucks were in full velvet just after dark last night. Sure didn't take them long to rub out.
High fence, low fence, no fence, it really doesn't matter as long as you're hunting!

This rain and cold weather with great timing will have a lot stripping the velvet off. From today forward for the next few days most will strip the velvet off in many areas.

Just checked trail cams and have a little under half of the bucks on cam out of velvet as of this morning. I would think by Sunday here that 75%-80% will be out of velvet.

Was in Foard County last weekend and I'd say 80% are hard antlered. The bigger ones should shed this week.
