Antlers Are Dropping In December?

In the 18th Episode of the Wing and Tail Boys, Chris dives into the “early antler drop” on his family property in Upstate New York. Finding it odd that the antlers drop as early as early-to-mid December in their area, he decided to speak to some locals and do some research to find if this was just a one-off, or a recurring pattern. The episode begins with Chris discussing some of the factors that have influenced his current season, especially with his first child on the way! It quickly transitions to the topic at hand, starting off with the “why” and “when” of antler shedding. After establishing a basis for the topic, the host begins to discuss the different factors that affect the timing of antler drop or how long a buck will hold on to his antlers. After discussing the affecting factors, Chris transitions into what this means for the property and how he and his family can use this information to formulate a plan for the future. He touches on future planting requirements, property design, winter forage, buck potential, and more! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
