I shot a shed buck around 29-30 years ago when I was 14-15 yrs old. It was muzzleloader season the week between Christmas and New Years in Zone 20 which doesn’t even exist anymore. There was a group of what I thought were does in the field and I picked the biggest one and shot. It was my first muzzleloader deer. I got a surprise when I rolled him over to gut him.

I pretty much considered shooting a shed as a giant waste.  That's why I don't shoot "does" after December (b/c they might be a shed buck).  Also, I don't like the idea of field dressing and finding 2 surprises.  

But, I get Ken's point above.

Also forgot to mention in my post above that the pictures in the cameras from the day before still showed headgear on the bucks.

Took one last year and will be trying again between now and end of season. I have a backyard spot that I doe hunt. Taken a deer opening day last 4 seasons and always cautious how many does I take out of there. Took the alpha doe recently. And have 1 mature doe 1 medium doe and about 6-7 fawns. I have a few young bucks that’s dropped and would prefer a young shed buck over a doe there. also will note that I have no issue if I was using my buck tag. This is a 3 point zone and these specific bucks aren’t legal until they shed. If they had 3 points on one side I would have already shot one and ended my season.

 

You make a good point... 

Zones that limit 3pts on a side should make shooting shed bucks illegal lol.

 

Whole state should be if it has balls you use your buck tag. If not, you use your doe tag.

 

Know your target or dont shoot.
