I pulled my card today and could not believe that this buck was the only one on the property that has not shed. I know that it is not unheard of to have antlers this late but most bucks here have shed by mid-March. I have always heard though that if a buck is stressed it is more likely to shed early. This guy lost his left eye sometime in October or November. It looks like the injury coupled with a harsh winter took its toll on him. I'm sure he'll be fine but he got a pass this year in hopes of him developing a little more into one of this season's top targets. I wonder if his current condition and the fact that he hasn't shed yet will set him back a little.
