Anybody gonna hunt sheds?
 
Im thinking about putting some time into shed hunting this year, when do you look for the deer to start dropping them? In this area if you dont find a shed shortly after it is dropped is going to be gone, even if you do it will probably have been nibbled on. Id rather have the antlers installed but Ill pick um up Im not above it .......hill

allready got a couple here in idaho and i have found sheds that are over a year old and untouched by critters. the deer will drop early if its a hard winter or the bigger the buck. just remmember go slow they blend in and are hard to spot

Another affirmative here. Gotta wait a few weeks though before they start dropping.

I found two fresh sheds 7 days ago up in northern Arkansas, a spike and a 3 point, and also found two 4 point sheds that were last years (very little rodent damage on them).

Two weekends from now I am having a weekend antler shed outing - stump shooting and hutning sheds in the mountains - gonna be a great weekend ....
