Dropping Already?

I would say yes, unfortunately. Others may have a more discerning eye.

Would you say this is the same deer?

Looks like the same deer for sure. Same light colored spots, same exact size and shape.

Thanks @woodsdog2 @DeadHeadSpread if he makes it to next season I think that’ll put him at 7-1/2 years old… can’t believe he keeps surviving. I thought I’d have a few chances in January but looks like he has an early drop trick in the playbook now too, shucks.

It was an apparently high stress year in my hunting areas this season; most bucks shed before jan 1. I’d never seen them all shed so early before.

No serviceable does = testosterone drop = antler drop.

Started Dropping weeks ago in Northern Wisconsin. Won't be able to looking for them for another 2 months. Just got another 8inches of snow yesterday.

I also found a pretty early one here in SE MI. I think it was Jan 6th. I don't remember finding one that early before.
