Shed Hunting...
Today I went out to do some post-season scouting in an area I haven't been to in a while. I was walking around and glanced to my right and saw a shed. I rushed over and picked it up and did a scan of the area. Not seeing anything I did some circles around it. I got to about a 100 yards away and didn't find anything so I went back to where I found it. I could identify the exact spot because the ground was tore up a little. Well I looked at the spot where it laid and not 5 feet from where it lay was a mathed set of a smaller buck. I couldn't believe I didn't see them when I first was there. I walked around a bit and found another shed but couldn't find its match. By far the best day I have ever had looking for sheds. I found 4 total and thats more then I have ever found in the last couple of years. There was also lots of elk droppings but I just couldn't find any sheds from them. It was a good day though, found a couple of hunting spots and some sheds.

RE: Shed Hunting...
I read that in the state hunting reg book that around here (Bama and MS) that deer shed in March. Maybe this year I'll do some scouting around then. I guess y'all that are finding sheds already are further North eh?
