sheds - who's finding them?

NCRecurve · March 21, 2007, 06:49:00 AM

I'm located in the piedmont region of NC, this is my first year for trying to find any. I've found some skulls with racks while turkey hunting and one shed a couple of years ago while shooting my bow in the woods behind the house. This year I've read several articles and posts on finding sheds. I've been out 3 times now for a couple of hours each time and I've found nada. As someone mentioned above, one of my coworkers saw one this week with both horns still on his head. I pulled the deer cam a couple of weeks ago and most I was seeing then were shed out. I'm not sure I have the vision or knack for this shed hunting yet. By the way, what does snow look like? I'm sure some of you are probably sick of it but my kids haven't gotten to sled in a couple of years now. :(

nice shed Kenny. Nice burr on it too. I bet it would make a nice limb bolt. I'm up to 7 so far. 3 1 1/2, 3 2 1/2, and the one pig. hope to get out more soon. PS - what's that green stuff it's on? We won't see green for at least another month.

I found one in with my horses; I would like to know the story behind that!
I too saw an antlered buck on the 23rd of this month- a nice 8.
I haven't been out looking; as I have a litter of german wirehair pups that are taking up my time- but they are going out the next dry day for an antler hunt.
Some of the best antler finders have four feet

have not found any on my limited time out looking for them specificaly, but dad found these two while we were rabbit hunting.

unfortunatly we dont see many around here with antlers like the ones you guys are finding, much less have them around to drop them.
