Im up North and had my cameras out pretty much all winter.  The First bucks I saw without antlers were in very late Dec and early Jan.  The majority dropped by lat Jan.  There were still some little guys packing even a couple weeks ago.

Awsome/ thanks...  My family has land and cabins up there,  and some times I go out and dont find anything, then wonder if Im to early or not right areas...  our area holds a couple small bucks maybe and a good hand full of does, but the monster bucks that come in to our land are coming from somewhere else and I am still trying to find where they live in the summer est....   ( any thoughts..?)

Either nocturnal,  or even just in the nastiest thickest brush piles, whitetails dont usually travel very far like mulies do

Ive been itchin to get up to my spot to look around. Frickin diesel prices need to drop some first though!! :bash: As soon as the snow is all gone I'll have a good excuse to load up the bikes and take a family trip up to the cabin! All the snow has to be gone first though before I'll drag the wife and kids over. At least my wife and daughter, my son will go anytime! :tup:
