geezer sent me a pic yesterday of a fresh shed. I think he has found 3 so far this year.
I'm hitting the woods in just a few, hope to find one myself.

I pulled 4000+ pics again yesterday and still not a single buck has dropped except for the 2 young ones that dropped 3 weeks ago now... I'm staying out of the woods till I see that the big fellas I'm getting pics of daily have dropped. I don't want to run them out as their staying close! I'm really getting excited! Wish they would hurry! I'm ready to get my hike on!
Wish you weren't moving Nate... We or I should say the owner is tossing around buying another huge timber tract virtually next to us.

I'm doing the same or at least trying to but I can't win, Everytime I check 2 certain cameras there is some new person or two out romping around. Kinda sucks and gets me frustrated but I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they stay around. My big boys are still toting there horns too as of Tuesday.

Heres one from yesterday I found on my lunch break in Brentwood, it was very fresh.


So far all the ones Ive found have been accidental in a way, two fresh sheds and a broken off beam while at work walking right of ways and little patches of woods in neighborhoods. The other one was from a little 5 point with a broke back leg and he dropped one side around Christmas, im guessing the leg issue might have played a role in it. As soon as I saw it had dropped from a cam I took a small hike searching and just got lucky, it was about 30 yards from a feeder I put out.
Heres my finds so far:

Also found this little 8 dead but only because the Buzzards showed it to me....

I always start hunting hard every year the weekend of the Daytona 500 but usually dont do real well until about the second week of March. Good Luck to ya Mr. Hawk

I was looking around the other day and saw some fresh rubs on some privet, fresh enough the bark was still green where it had been rubbed. These are small rubs, nothing much at all but fresh.
