Pulled the backyard camera card this morning and the local bucks are still antlered but are back to being friends. This makes 3 bucks I have seen still have antlers in the last week. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2024/03/full-29151-415056-img_0082.jpg)

I was just going to ask what others are seeing. I was at my buddy's lease yesterday; we looked a bit but found no sheds.

At some point in life its time to quit chasing the pot of gold and just enjoy the rainbow. FR

I was shed hinting Friday and saw several active scrapes still…amazed me. I figured i was about a week or two early but sometimes life gets in the way of the best plan. We did find 3, 2 from this year and one from previous year it appears.
I know some of the bucks on my property have shed but most havent.

About half of our local bucks seem to have lost their antlers.
A clear conscience is often the sign of a fuzzy memory.

From what I can tell from cell cams there arent many that have horns now. Not everything coming to feeders/cams now with a lot of green though. Three or four weeks ago there were still a lot with horns.
