Default RE: Found a couple sheds today

speaking of late sheds, I found one a couple of weeks ago while I took a friend to go check my stands and camera with me. its about the same size as your smaller one but all chewed up.

Late turkey season me and my brother were out riding fourwheelers and I was flying through the alfalfa field like always and eric(my brother) stopped and grabbed something. Well I was still flying forward at a good 40 mph until I got to my turkey blind (to take it down and move it) when eric finally caught up and showed me this huge (huge to me) shed. A great 4 point. Well I was told that once a big buck looses one side of his antlers he tries to get the other off as soon as he can because it bothers them while walking. Well We showed my dad and him and my mom went for a little walk to find the other shed. About 80 yards later he finds it and brings it back to camp and its a 9 point with a sticker right below his brow.

you can see all of the other side but here is a picture.

Next time im at our cabin ill grab the sheds down and get a picture of them together.

EDIT: I found a video that you can sorta get a idea of how big it is.
