Great pics! It must be nice getting the chance to see what' s really out there.
I' ve only spotted one decent 8-point, a big 5-point, and another 8-point with the tiniest tines - they looked like little fingers. I' d like to get a picture just to show how small.
We have a salt lick underneath a light that stays on all night - it' s almost 90% does and fawns.
As for shedding the velvet - I haven' t seen any yet but I did watch a buck rubbing his antlers on a sapling - must be getting close to losing the velvet....
