Southern WI, it’s a crap shoot. Some early droppers start in Dec, have seen them hold well into April. This year is one that a lot held on until late March, early April. Saw a descent one with one side yet last week. Typically bigger deer seem to drop sooner but not this year.
Second week for the last three years. Watched a herd of 50 deer until the last two big guys dropped their headgear and went in the next day. These deer were feeding in a snow covered field that looked like they were eating dirt. Turns out it was a harvested sugar beet field. Drove me crazy, only found the right side of both big ones and searched another day for the left sides but no go.
