Tips on looking for shed antlers
I am an avid deer hunter living in Tallahassee, Florida. First of all, I am thrilled to find the site & look very fwd to getting to know all of you as we share hunting tips, stories, and our overall passion for what the Good Creator has given us!
My family has a farm outside of Tallahassee & our deer season just ended last Wednesday (gun season). I am always saddened to see it go, but I am also looking fwd to making the off season improvements that my Dad & I always strive to make. Soon we' ll be planting & doing other necessary particulars to get those wiley bucks growing for next fall.
In all my years of deer hunting, I have never found a shed antler! I have not always done a lot of post season scouting though, so hopefully this spring I can find one or two. Can ya' ll tell me the best way to go about it? Are there certain areas or spots that I should check, or is it a matter of happing across antlers in the woods? I know the varmits get to them in a hurry, so I want to get out there when they start falling.
Thanks & as I said, I eagerly anticipate getting to know you & hearing your stroies of the great, elusive whitetail (or other varieties of deer).
