Default Had a good day shed hunting!

Went shed hunting today and me and a friend found 6 total....I found 5! Two sheds were from 1.5 yr old bucks and they were probably 2-3 years old and chewed up. Found a right side to a nice 8 pt with a little kicker coming off the front of the base. Found another side to an 8 pt 2.5 yr old. And found another side to an 8pt that was dropped last year and chewed a little. I'm at 7 on the season and one 130" skull.....my friend is at 18 now.....I gotta catch up. Check back in about a week and I'll probably have pics up of all the sheds I've found this year.

Awesome! I went out on Saturday for about 2 1/2 hours, found 4 antlers and one old rack. The antlers consisted of 3(4pts) and 1 (5pts). It was my 1st time out.

Well, I took a pic of the sheds I found so far this year but it's way too big to fit on here. It's file size is 1.2 Mb. Is there anyway to make it smaller? It's a JPEG.....is that why it is SOO large of a file size?

Default RE: Had a good day shed hunting!

I have been tramping threw my woods and searching for sheds in which so far i am unsuccessful.. i want to go threw some thick brush where i believe bucks bed and I also have 15 Acres of thick CRP where bucks bed. I dont know if i should go threw this to find sheds when i will leave all that sent behind. I know its spring but I dont want to kick my bucks to other woods to bed at.

Is it worth searching or just leave it be?
