February 23

IA (early) Shed Antler Hunt 

After we returned from our vacation to Texas, we were pleasantly surprised that much of the snow had melted in North Iowa and Southern Minnesota following a week of unseasonably warm temperatures.  I went to Iowa for a quick afternoon of shed hunting hoping to find the antlers to 2 big bucks that I had been hunting the prior fall.  It was a great day to get out of the house and get some exercise, but no sheds were found.  I suspect that many of the bucks are still carrying their antlers.  Shed hunting also is a great opportunity to see sign that was left during the fall such as scapes and rubs.
