Shed hunting
Yeah I know, it`s about as much fun as watching grass grow, but I still managed to find 3 today. One little 2 pt side, one small 4 pt side off a 2 1/2 year old, and the other has split G-1s, and 2s, 7 points altogether, almost 6" bases, and measures just under 75". Found the small ones at a fence crossing about 10 feet apart, and the big one in a wide open weed field. Just saw the white tips of the split G-2 at about 25 yards. I hope to see that buck in the future. I`ll get some pics posted if you guys are interested.
One day, long, long ago, there lived a woman who did not whine, nag, or bitch.
But it was a long time ago, and it was just that one day.

Re: Shed hunting
I'd like to see that big shed.
I've gone looking for them a few times, mostly getting out just to scout, but I've never found a small shed. The last one I found was 6pts on one side. I don't know why that is.

Re: Shed hunting
Maybe because they're smaller & harder to see?

Re: Shed hunting
Yeah, in shed huntin the smaller ones are the real trophies, cuz they're harder to find.

Re: Shed hunting
I'm only after the big ones anyway. But you'd think I'd step on a small one or see one eventually.

Re: Shed hunting
Don't you use your bow to hunt sheds?

Why is this topic in bowhunting? I vote that this should be moved to "deer."
I vetoed your vote ALCraig.

Re: Shed hunting
Found a couple more gooduns today, both within 100 yards of where I found the big one last week. I`ll see if I can get pics on here tomorrow.
