After hearing lots of folks think things were pushed back a little bit/were a little later than normal, shedding might just be the opposite this year.   I just witnessed a whitetail drop both sides in the last 30 hours.  Late season hunters, grab those antlers gently when ground checking them.

Haha  I was on a Sitka Blacktail hunt with some buddies out of Cordova, Alaska. At the end of the day we all met up at a friend's cabin on Hawkins Island. Young guy had gotten a real nice buck and couldn't wait to show it off. He jumped in the skiff his buck was in and grabbed it by the antlers and Pulled with all his might to lift it high enough for us all to see it and the antlers fell off.  He was pulling so hard he fell over backwards out of the skiff into the water with an antler in each hand. We had a great laugh and of course he got a good ribbing. He did get the first turn in the sauna that night.

Whoa! Don’t say that all you are doing is riling up people out hunting still !  Antlers aren’t dropping ! This is sarcasm as I was called out by a member saying moose don’t drop in November

And he keeps trolling my comments and old posts after I was blocked from one of his...this is why I'm silent on here 90% of the time anymore. It's best they just keep assuming those bulls hold paddles till about May any ways. Saddest part of the season was finding a bull that had been shot and left in 117. Found a set of last years paddles about 300 yds from him.

I’ve noticed a dramatic decrease in pictures on this site due to keyboard knit pickers ( shed trap feeder  :rolleyes: ) Hunters knit picking other Hunters is killing us.

It’s the Internet people have fun on the internet in ways you might not understand., whats killing us is soft skinned people who get offended and leave because they read to into things strangers say.
