Here is another nice little anecdote to add to the list.Two years ago we shot a Y buck the first day and both antlers came off during a 100 yd. drag. besides , you should know by now that I don't post facts like that without a reference . Although the source may be dated , there is no reason why it wouldn't apply to todays anterless harvests.

Just for you, I'll see if I can come up with a link to the PGN's article that states that 2-3% of the anterless harvest were adult buck that had lost their racks. And, as I recall it was before we had the late ML, late anterless rifle and late archery season.

Here is the link ,for your reading pleasure and please note that the total of adult buck in the naterless harvest was 4% , not the 2-3% I reported.
