Velvet

[Elitebowhunter]

I went walking to my stand yesterday to cut some branches off. When I was walking to the timber there was a buck there just looking at me. I dropped my jaw when I seen his white antlers. I was about 50 yards away when I seen him. I didn't know if it was possible yet or if I am seeing things. In all I will be taking my trail cam out this this weekend. I want to get some pictures of him and post him on this site.

What have you all been seeing?

According to my research and experience of deer in my area. That is about 20-25 days earlier than when I see them shed around here.
I usually see the first ones shedding on trailcam around August 17-25.

I have a few pictures with bloody spots on the velvet. Also I would say the velvet is very noticeably drying and tightening.
