Spent a few hours getting refreshed in my regular hunting woods and found this. It was lying about 10 feet from an active community scrape. Southeast facing slope protected from the wind. A typical shed finding area here in Wisconsin. Makes my bow arm twitch for September!

It's about three weeks too early for Morels here in Pennsylvania...third week of April is about the time we start here in the west central part of the state.

Very Cool Find!!!

Indeed! Turkey season here (CO Rockies, 8000' ele) opens mid-April, and it is, as The Professor would say, trifurcate: three things to hunt -- turkeys, morels, and sheds. Here they are elk, as our mule deer go lower to winter, but the excitement is the same. After a zillion years of doing this I have SO many antlers in and on the tiny cabin, that I've taken to cutting them up for longbow tips, knife handles, etc. Whatever, they are magic!
He just may be a shooter this year. Nice Buck. I miss morels too. :(
Never even heard of a Morel. However that is a fine antler-----I hope you find that bruiser this season.
Jeff
let that buck grow a few more years then hes a shooter lol
morels are the best mushroom out there
SWEET!!! Nice horn, did you see him when he was wearing it?
Found 8 little morels after work today only hit one small spot on the way home. A friend picked about 200 on Saturday and Sunday in a burned area behind his house biggest one was a 1.5" most were half of that.
Nice shed bowdude good luck finding the other side. Happy hunting everyone whether it's for morels, turkeys,or sheds. Have a great spring. Bretto
Nice shed bowdude,Found 47 morels today.They are just coming out,Should be a good week.
Had wild turkey breast on the grill and fresh morels for dinner,Yummy :p
I find that fall mushrooms have more flavor but you have to know what you are doing.Chanterel,oyster and hen of the woods are what I look for.Hen of the woods blows all of them away for taste.

In the fall we have a lot of those white softball size or larger mushrooms around here. Even out behind the house. Slice em like bread and fry in butter, they taste like eating mozarrella cheese to me. The wife loves em but I can pass.
No I din't see him last fall. I got this nice buck early and switched to another area where I could use another buck tag. But no luck there.

Nice shed! Is that G-4 broken or chewed?
I saw a small 4 or 6 pt buck yesterday. Shouldn't he be anterless? (antlers shed?)Duh?
Larry PS. I'm in west central Illinois
What bow is that in your first pic?
Looks like a "skinned" Predator to me! Or a good homemade impersonation.
Nice shed man.Did you see any sign hinting that that buck was around?Nice one on the ground too Id "settle" for him real quick.
Yep - a skinneze Predator.
The G4 is broken, no chew marks. I know what to be holding out for this year!
Nice shed, real nice bow! Jonesy
