Start looking for antler sheds soon after the season is over.  Some bucks may not drop their antlers until March, but others lose them sooner. Also, look for sign as clues that you must then put together like pieces of a puzzle to form a complete picture of a deer's movement pattern.  Use a topographic map and mark the location of any sheds that you may find on the map. Also take a small notebook with you to describe any rack you may find. You should also mark down trail locations, rub lines, beds, scrapes, and any deer sightings Doing this type of research will give you a good idea of where to hunt the following season along with a better understanding of the deer's movements
