I haven't found anyMass. sheds in WV this season.


:)


On a serious note, what's everybody's shed hunting technique? Do you just walk on the main trails and really scope out the bedding areas? The set I found this year was my first shed finds, found them up on a ridge about 5 feet off the trail, pure luck.

I found a perfect set of sheds from a 10pt on the last day of ML season. He measured around 120 or so. I know where I'm hunting next year.

father had a small half rack in his yard yesterday afternoon... looked like he had 3 or 4 (maybe a very small brow tine) on the one side... I will go behind his house this weekend and look for them.

I have been watching the same 3 bucks for a few weeks now. My neighbor has motion sensor lights on his bushes, makes it easy to know when and where to look. Anyway, as of last night (1/23) at least on of them still had his head gear.
