While quail hunting on 12/26/04 I found a fresh antler shed. I did not see this deer this year, but it could be from the same deer I found a shed from last winter. Brow tine was 7 1/4, G2 11, & G3 10 3/8. Not much mass-generally 4". The gross score was 64" for the side found with no allowance of spread. I can only hope he grows some mass and continues with the nice length, as well as growing another point. It is a tight racked deer which is pretty common in the area. None the less it is a great find for me. Also saw 2 bucks later in the day that had both of their antlers. Kind of curious as to why a deer would drop that early. Anyone know why this happens? We have a late doe season coming up this weekend, which could be dangerous for this old boy if he has dropped the other side. Hope he makes it until he walks by my stand next fall.
