Where you have deer you have sheds. Ive found them in bedding areas, travel routes, fields, and field edges, feeding areas just about anywhere a deer goes you can find a shed. Have fun doing it. I see so many neat things in the woods when I am looking for sheds. I will have to say that looking in bedding areas and on field edges is where I have had my best luck. I have found 4 so far this year and Im not done looking. Gonna go out tommorrow and look some more. Good luck to you hope you find more.

You might pay particular attention to trails where they cross obstacles such as fences, ditches, etc.. Sometimes a beam will get jarred loose jumping a ditch, fence,.....
