Hey guys - figured we could centralize the shed hunting pics (kinda like the deer / elk / antelope threads). So here goes:
Went out yesterday with my buddy to an area I knew held some great deer. Had a lot of pics on the camera of a few dandy bucks and was keeping my fingers crossed that I'd stumble upon one of them. I have spent a ton of time in the woods looking for sheds over the years with little luck. In fact the only thing I ever found was a dead head and I cant even take credit, my dog found that one...
In any event we started our search and decided to check this little stream bottom where we saw a ton of sign. On the way down my buddy Keith picked up a horn with a shorter G2 and the shed looked to be about 2 years old. I was pretty sure I knew which buck this was. We checked out a picture I had on my phone and sure enough it was an older shed of the 10 point I chased all year. So we kept searching... About 75 yards after we found that original shed I hit pay dirt. I saw a big horn just sitting on the top of the snow. Then I turn to the left and not 4 feet away there is another horn just sitting there. We looked at the rack and couln't beleive it. It was the big 10 points rack from this year. We held up the 2 year old shed and it matched perfectly, same symetry and all. Kept looking and found 1 more shed of a broken 6 point I had pics of. All in all a great morning. 3 hours and 4 sheds. Can't beat that!!!
Not a bad buck for Connecticut!!!!
