Well verdict is, it may be too early, but its also too damn dangerous! Ive never actually seen trees fall down in the woods, until today, when I saw it happen 3 times.[8D]

Didnt find any sheds but I found some nice turds, and a few small rubs.

Found 3 today in southern WV. I wasn't even looking for them. I found them while walking to my stand. All within 100 yards of each other.

In Michigan things tend to drop in Jan. & Feb...so I usually lay low if things thaw in late December...

That is strange. Although the last weekend of muzzleloader up here my buddy shot a buck that had dropped his horns already, crazy! That was about 2 1/2 weeks ago...
