Hmmm, might have to do a little snooping around. Maybe pull a card while I'm there.

Takes them a awhile. Sometimes you find them where the outline of the antler is paper thin and chewed all the way around the radius.I might have to go out Monday. I hear Squirrels will eat them up too ?
I found a buck that had been eaten up by coyotes yesterday in MoCo. No telling what killed the buck, but from what I could tell, it had shed its antlers. It only had little nubs and I could tell they hadn't been removed by a saw. I searched the area with my dog but didn't find anything.
I saw two very large and pretty 8points yesterday. They're still holding them from what I've seen.
I read a small study last year that showed evidence that the longer they hold their antlers into spring, the more likely it is that they will NOT gain mass with the next set, and may in fact be smaller.This young one is still holding on to his hat.
Many hunters seek out a “chocolate” horned trophy. I’d leave the color alone. They’ll also whiten up some over time.I found a couple of sheds today out in the woods. They have a brown color to them, should I try to remove that color and make them bone white or just clean off dirt and be done with it?
