In central Minnesota as of yesterday I'd say they have shedd about 50%. I got game cam pics from this past week and out of 3 bucks, only one was missing one side. Last night i watched 2 bucks at my neighbors feeder.....full racks on both! From the last 2 years of cam photos....which don't lie.....all horns are dropped by Feb 25th.

Good luck shedd hunting!

Found my first fresh shed jan. 6th and my total now is 29.My first good snow free day was last tues. when I found 11 sheds.
Most my sheds so far this year have been fresh sheds.

5 minutes into my shed hunting today I found the left side to a 150 class 8 pt shed. About 5 minutes later my friend found a small shed to an 8 pt and then about 10 minutes after that I found the right side to a 150 class 10 pt but the G2 is broke. What's weird about the 10 pt shed I found is that it must have started to come loose and got infected b/c the deer probably kicked it off this morning but when I picked it up there was A LOT of "skull" on it and it was ***** (almost like snot all over it)....very nasty...but a nice shed!

OK, trying to use a different picture host, thry this;

I have been out 1 time, a week ago, found both sides to 2 different 10 pointers, One side of one of the ten pointers had a broken off G-4
One of the Ten Pointers had 7 inch bases, thats rare for around here, Not to mention they were found on Public /Govt. land that I had a stand hanging not 40 yards from both sheds and did not sit the stand one time this year.

Ok, it is Mid- Feb, some guys/gals gotta be finding some sheds, Would the northern states have dropped last month? I am sure with places like AL having a rut in Jan they will not drop for a while yet.
