Velvet Rubs

[bengal13]

Checked my trail cams last night and got my first pictures of bucks with the velvet starting to come off. Bloody antlers and strips of velvet hanging down. Farm is in west central Indiana.

Anyone else seeing the same thing? I thought it was a bit early, but I guess not.

My son pointed one out on the job today that was bare to the bone.
No joke! ..... horns came around in a nice curl (maybe 11" in between) with no brow tines or anything.
