Antler Development


I'm posting another picture of my buck. He is a 5 year old,not a monster, but a decent buck.I thought that I would take a picture of him on the first of every month so that everyone can see how a bucks antlers develop. This is a pretty exciting time of year for me. It's always interesting to watch how fast they grow. I also have a couple of fawn bucks that will be growing their first racks so I'll show you those too. Good luck with your shed hunting.

Shed season has begun!!



Hello everyone. I have to admit this is my very first attempt at blogging,but being an avid (or should I say an obsessed) bow hunter this is a very boring time of year for me. So I decided to give this a whirl. I'm also a deerfarmer. I only have a few deer and I've got to say they are truly a fascinating animal to raise. One great advantage of having a buck just outside your door is knowing when its time to go shed hunting. My buck just shed his antlers yesterday (2/07/09) Now I know bucks shed their antlers at different times, but now I know that at least its possible that there are some to be found. I would love to hear from you and will post pictures of any big sheds I find and would like to see your pics too. Anyone that has any tips on how to find sheds, I'm all ears.Thanks, and happy hunting
