I picked up my first sheds this year during Ohio's gun season.  the last 7 years I have found at least 1 shed antler the first week of december.  I do not think they are shedding any earlier than normal, just that certain deer shed earlier than others.

The 5 bucks I saw in central OK this morning certainly hadn't shed yet...especially the big 12 pointer! Sheesh. Biggest whitetail I've ever seen.   :banghead:    :D   Too bad I'm not a 40 yard shooter! My heart rate still hasn't returned to normal.  :archer:

A guy I ran into last day of Westchester NY season, 12/31 said he found a half a 10 pt rack earlier that week. Does seem a bit early.
