I pulled a memory card out of my game camera this past weekend, and sorted through the pictures. It is tough this time of year, because all of the bucks have already dropped their racks, and they are starting to regrow them. It is so early in the growth process though, that there typically isn’t much to get excited about during this time of year.
I was happy to see that the antler growth has kicked back in though. Here is a picture of a little buck with some nubs starting. It will be nice from this point on to see the antler growth kick in, and watch the development.
This was a good reminder though that it is a great time to start putting out some deer mineral blocks. Supplementing a deers intake of minerals can be very helpful to their antler development, and you can reap the rewards from this when the deer season opens.
