nice finds but whats EHD

blood - are you seeing any bucks with antlers, i guy at work said he seen one the other night with antlers , i would have guess they would have been off my now.

Shame about the deer but those are some nice finds

Thats a real shame. We had a bad EHD outbreak in SW PA.

My buck actually turned out to be an EHD victim that survived. He was 75-80 pounds lighter than he should have been.Every bone in his body showed through his hide. I shot him on Jan 11 and he was starting to recover but I dont think he'd have made the winter. 4 1/2 years old scored 120 6/8 with two broken tines

Not sure about the spelling?.....but it is Enzezootic Hemmoraging Disease.Every where they had the drought conditions this summer the deer have been getting it from drinking stagnant water and there are fly/gnats that bite them and infect their blood and they bleed to death internanly.They usually go to a water source and die or even die in a pond,Lake or water source!We have found several dead deer around our area and it seems to affect the Bucks mostly?

WOW!! Great finds, its a shame they died though

Wow Dan, if you have found that many, just imagine how many others there are out there. Neat finds but a real shame for the hunting.

WOW BT thats wild, sounds like that buck had a rough road, and to survive it, WOW. my buddy has a pet doe, she came down with it and was on her death bed, he was going to put her down but his wife would not let him, she laid in a water trough and eventually bounced back but never fully regained all her weight.

Thats a shame they died like that, both great bucks, nice finds.

Hate to see that. That's a beauty of a buck. It's good to see you and your kids out looking!
