Ohio Deer Sheds
 

Everyones talking about shedding bucks already, and I was wondering when the deer in Ohio start to shed.. Hunting seasons in till Feb. here and I see racked bucks till then.
Then someone on here said some start Dec.

When?

IN southern Ohio where their feed is mostly browse I have found sheds in early January. However, up in the farm country I have pictures of bucks carrying their racks in late March.

I saw a buck here last week with only one side, Nothing was visible on the other side, could have broke it off i suppose, but he may have shed it?? North central kansas

There will be some deer and moose up here that will drop a few antlers. For the most part it normally happens aronud the middle of Feb. threw the first half of March though..

I took what I thought was a big doe during gun season. The deer was limping so I figured it was a good one to take out of the herd. When I got up to HIM he had shed both horns. When butchering him it appeared that he got hit by a car. I am assuming this is why he lost his antlers so soon.
