I just saw an 8 point walking through the backyard. This has to be the latest I have ever seen a buck that still had both antlers. I've found sheds in the yard in early january before so I am guessing this guy is a real anomaly. He looked normal/healthy for march. I'd say a 3 year old from the body shape and antlers. Anybody else see any this late?

I have not. As a matter of fact...deer are usually pretty hard to spot this time of year, so you seeing one with antlers still is really weird! I was actually going to head out on Sunday to do look for sheds....maybe their all still wearing them! lol

Everything that I have ever read about shed hunting says to go in late feb/early march right after a rain so they stick up and out over the leaf litter and shine.

That is great advice! I went out yesterday and it was hard to tell the difference between the broken branches (EVERYWHERE) and anything that looked like a rack. We decided to set up a food plot with a netting system to at least coax an antler shed next year. Get the whole thing set up after January is the plan. But, I did a little search and saw people picking up Moose, Elk sheds out north and west.....ughhh. Looks like 50lbs of bone!
