Default Arkansas bucks losing their horns

Yep, I found two fresh antlers this weekend with just a bit of looking. In a couple of weeks I am going to shed hunt hard and see what I come up with. One was a 3 point shed, one a spike shed, and I found two 4 point sheds that were last years.

Anybody else ?

I also have started looking...found 2 from last year. 1 was a 3 point that was in great shape. I found it around some cedar trees. I found a huge 4 point but it was in bad shape. Game & Fish advised me that they have started dropping so I will start looking hard.

my buddy last night called and tried to give me a four point . hit by a car . before i could even leave the house someone else got it. i have seen bucks keep them until march. i dont put much faith in the agfc . a biologist tried to tell a group that a bucks antlers continue to grow throughout the season and size depends on the quality of food during this period. also stated that the rut was over in nov. , then why are they still scraping, chasing does, the only thing i havent seen is the actual copulation. there is just something about a biologist that has an office in little rock trying to tell poeple that see deer everyday about deer.
