Shed antler hunting
I found this fresh 3 point shed in a field on April 3rd. I found another small one that was years old in a plowed field, and when I took my 9 year old cousin shed hunting he found a chewed up 4 point. Here is the pic of my first shed.
And a pic for size comparison next to an ipod:

Neat shed. I havnt found any so far this year, but i havnt really gone out for them. My uncle found 4 within 10 yards of each other when we went turkey hunting earlier in the season, those were the onlyones he had ever found.

RE: Shed antler hunting
thanks! 
Here is a pic of all the sheds that i got this year. The top pair are the ones my neighbor found behind his house. This big buck is lurking in my backyard and I'm gonna try to get him with a bow this year. the next two sheds are the ones my dad and i found. The first one on the bottom is the one I found in a plowed field last week (it's real old) and the last one is the chewed up one my cousin found.

RE: Shed antler hunting
The only time I went out this year was at the beginning of April to my uncle's hunting land. I found one side that's a 4 point that looks almost exactly the same as that one on the top right, except that it has a larger brown tine. I also found a 3x3 set, 2x2 set, and a set of spikes. On some land by my uncle's, I also found a really, really nice 2x2 set that I'm going to use to make a jackalope with once I get a rabbit.

RE: Shed antler hunting
Yeah, my cousin is already really into the outdoors. He loves to go trapping and fishing with his dad My dad and I have taken him hunting with us a few times, so he could tag along. He has a .22 chipmunk and we always take him shooting.
