So - anyone been out shed hiking yet?  It's still a little earlier for "prime time" here, in Ohio, but I'm curious about elsewhere.

I am in southern Minnesota - have 8 or 9 bucks at my feeder each evening - 2 have lost antlers so far, I have heard others are dropping now as well - probably something to do with how harsh the winter has been - lots of snow and cold
I shed hunted twice this week, but nothing yet - both those that lost antlers were smaller bucks

I found a real crazy antler this week - real heavy base, but 2 tines right at base busted badly - must have busted early on in growth - rack then never grew right and had a small palmation on top - I saw this buck a few times prior to dropping that side - other side was a perfect 7 points - real wide - I hope I find that one

snow just leaving the woods now and was out looking around this mourning, kinda scouting and shed hunting found one with 5 points on it not too heavy and probably from 2 winters ago. found a few rubs I missed last fall though.

I have been out quite a few times but sadly no such luck yet. I usually have better luck when I'm not looking for them.
