matchset- do you feel that was a "lucky" shed or did you know bucks were dropping?

Yeah, I was.

I just dont see any evidence of any deer grouping up yet anywhere. Hope we get some soon!

Posted

I was looking. I had seen two bucks completely shed out and another couple halfies... Its my opinion that 10% drop in dec

Posted

I know of a few that have started to drop already. Was gonna go out last weekend but had to goose hunt. Hopefully I will make it out this weekend. It begins!

Posted

Sweet weres the pics?! I was half expecting an antler to pop off that buck I shot in ND haha. Ive heard from 3-4 people that they are seeing bucks without antlers around northern MN.

That's terrible news, I still got a week left eek

Found a match set of a 10 pointer today that were 10 yds apart. Will check my trail cam and see if it will tell me the approx date when he dropped them. Scores in the 130s with a spread.

Nice to hear. Sounds like Mondays my day... smile

There you go, from my pics on trail cam, He dropped them on the 15th of December. The first pic is the buck that dropped his sheds. Bottom pic is a small spike so you can see th other shed.

Yeah, hard to tell how big they really were in the trail cam pics. He was bigger last year, we have pics of this deer for a few years now. We put the tape to the bone again last night and got a little over 140" with a est. 16" spread.

only 140 WITH a spread? wow, very decieving i guess. i believe ya; but they sure look dandy. great brows, nice G4s. ... must have short main beams.

Posted

That is really cool!! Did you score him? I like how grey his face is, that is a beautiful buck!!

Posted

cool pics everyone

Posted

Really neat, some areas they just shed sooner, New Year's night we had a Y buck, 10 point, and an 8 with a doe and fawn in our field finally, March 15th I'll go try to find them, I used to look way to early in the year, trailcams taught us plenty about shedding in our area, just as they can teach you about your area. Really neat pictures, you got 1 there to hunt next year !

They were not very long main beams, I can't remember what the length's were but somewhere 17" mark. He may not be a wide buck but he's got the tine length (lacked this year compared to last year) mass on the main beams and tines then great brows. You can find a video/pic of this deer in last year's 2009 trail cam thread.

Anyone having luck finding sheds? We have some snow from Friday and Saturday up north, not too deep but may have to go out sometime soon and see if there is some sign around and check cams.

      Monday was my worst day of winter fishing on Vermilion in the last 4 years.  Caught only one 14" walleye in nearly 8 hours of fishing.  Missed two other bites and was marking very few fish.  Maybe the fish were taking Monday off after a big weekend.   No more water came up on the ice under my house.  Think it was because I haven't banked snow around it for a couple of weeks so the bare ice around the house is getting very thick.  I measured 38" of ice under my house and the Ion barely made it through even with the extension installed.  Needless to say I banked around the house this time.  Another lesson I learned today is don't drill holes if ice is frozen on your blades.  I did that on one hole and it didn't center properly and drilled at an angle on the edge of the opening.  Hope I can correct the location and angle on my next trip up.   Not much change in the surface lake surface conditions.  The drifts may be a little higher and are definitely harder.  There are still a few bare ice spots on the lake.  Very little activity on the lake today.  There are about 3 dozen houses from McKinley Park out to Birch Island.  Another person pulled there house off today, and I am sure many more will pull theirs off this coming weekend.  Only 13 days left of walleye season.

      Great looking food. So far not much of a game and I thought the halftime show was worse I've seen.

      They’d be just as happy to inherit the boat Dad took them fishing in, wouldn’t they?
