Last year was my first time shed hunting and I personally have not found any deer sheds, only moose sheds.

My good friend suggested to me that he also found it hard finding sheds for many years when he started out...
Until he specifically started looking for sheds, meaning training your eye to look for antlers and stop looking at deer tracks and rubs etc.
SPECIFICALLY ANTLER LOOKING ONLY!
He also says he uses his GPS with the "tracks" turned on and then saves it.
So if he goes back into the same woods, he can move over 20 or 30 yards and not walk down the same redundant trails all the time.
His favorite time to shed hunt is, just when the snow has melted down with a few patches of ground showing.
