RE: Question - Winter Buck Sparring?
I beleive it - but I've never seen it. Most years - I'm lucky to get one or two buck pictures in January, Say nothing about a "Batchelor Group". You don't hear much about buck behavior after the 1st of the year in the Hunting Media.
I've picked up several Sheds already this year - so I'm thinking they aren't far from dropping.
