HNI Visitor-I got you beat for finding shed early in year or late from last year.While out scouting the second week in Oct. for early ML season in MD.
I came across a 3 pt. side that had no chews or fading and looked like it was recently dropped.I can' t believe it was dropped that early and had to be from previous spring.
I' ve shot two different buck in different years that when I grabbed an antler to drag deer out fell off in my hands.Both were shot the week following Thanksgiving,then I shot another buck in different year again,but was shot 2 weeks later in year that turned out to be a buck that had already dropped both sides.
Buck have always dropped early,but I believe the majority drop between the end of jan. and late March.
This year was earliest I ever found a fresh shed for year and that was jan 15th.
I found two fresh sheds that same day
