HK94 If your like me and dont have time to search every inch of a parcel etc. skip the trails, fence lines and creek crossings etc. I wasted numerous hours, days, shed seasons etc over the years searching trails, creek crossings, fence etc. It wasnt until I started to concentrate the majority of my time searching in very thick bedding area's and fields that I started finding sheds almost every trip out. The reason I spend 90% + of my time searching these 2 area's ( of course you have to identfy where they are bedding and feeding) is because bucks are spending 90 + % of their time in these 2 area's. And since bucks are spending 90 + % of their time in these 2 area's , there is a 90 + % chance the bucks will drop their antlers in these 2 area's. In short spend your time searching where the bucks spend the majority of their time in, searching trails etc. is like looking for a needle in a haystack because most bucks will use different trails every day to get from their bedding area's to their feeding area's and vise versa. The only time I walk trails etc. is if im trying to learn the area or pattern a particular buck that I was hunting, got pics of or found sheds too. Pike
