First velvet-free buck of the year in NY!
They're startin' to rub off the velvet here in western New York. I took a short ride befor dark last night and only saw 8 or 9 bucks. The good new is that one of them was polished up and he was a really big bodied 3 yr. old 8 or 9-pt. I'd say that within a week probably 80-90% of our bucks with be out of velvet. I'll have to take the spotlight out tonight and see if I can get some footage of bucks in hard-horn. Only a month and a half to go here in NY!!!
