Antlers Falling in IL???
 

Went hunting 3 days this week trying not to eat tag. No luck.

Anyways, several of the smaller bucks I saw only had 1 antler. I've got to believe they are finally starting to drop. I'll probably give it another week or so, but then it's time to tear up the woods looking for antlers. Good luck!

I got a quick question, how do yall shed hunt? Do you just walk through the woods or look for certain things?

RE: Antlers Falling in IL???
 

That or you can take your dogs with you like mine, they just bring em back after being back all day.

I have found a couple already that where just dropped. The best way that we have found them is just to walk around a lot. We found 26 last year.

Already found a big set laying right next to each other. Talked to a couple other guys who have found one or two. However, I saw 7 different bucks this weekend and they all had full headgear.

On another note, I'm always amazed at the bucks I see after the season is over. I can't say for sure whether or not I had seen any of them before (4 were real nice....can't wait till next year ;)).
