Is anyone finding any sheds yet?!
I am shed obsessed and enjoy shed pictures and the things found while searching. I have just started searching them out last week and only picked up three this far. None of these were big, so lets see the big or unique finds of fellow bowsiters!

Still another month away here in ms. I did get one buck on cam last week that had dropped one side but most here will start around the 1st 2 weeks of march.

Up to 6 here so far, 4 singles and one pair. I usually dont bother looking until february but after getting some pictures of bucks that had already dropped, i elected to go looking. I've never had more than 1 or 2 before feb 1st. (central IL)

Nogutsnostory it appears you are extremely talented at finding the left side of a deers antlers.

Six left sides this January no right sides yet!! Strange but they'll show up soon, all of our sheds got buried under 8" of fresh snow this week. So we will have to wait for a good thaw!!

Those are some solid sheds!!! I am heading out in the morning to hopefully add a few pictures of my own.

Little crippled buck (wounded right rear leg) behind the house just shed between February 19th, 08:16 AM and February 20th, at 7:37 PM... Shed both sides within 34 hours, but still haven't had a chance to search for his sheds, but will be hard to find due to size, but unique if I can find them...
He's one of those typical bad antler on opposite side of wounded rear leg...

Here is a buck I found on public this weekend and a shed in one of the food plots on the family farm.

Found a good one yesterday. I almost killed him the last week of season, but he's going to be pretty special this year!
From: Zbone
29-Feb-16
5575 - Yeah, pretty rack, great find... Yeah, guessing he'll be a dandy next season...
Curious, does the other side match as a 6x?
From: Destroyer350

Most of the deer and elk are still holding here in Colorado but I was able to stumble onto this one.
From: 5575

Zbone yes its actually a better side even "brow and G5 are longer" and he's got a good frame as well. Fall can't come soon enough.

It's amazing how many bucks some of you guys still have in the woods after season. Wish I could say the same about my area.

72" side, i had several trailcam pictures and encounters but holding his shed made him seem so much better.

I can't speak for everyone, but I think most keep for their collection. Finding a shed off a target buck is a great feeling. Not many true hunters would give that up. Any horn you find is a real trophy! Awesome find 4x4, I know you were pumped

I give mine to kids who have shown an interest in the outdoors. If it's a big one, I keep it. Never really thought about putting a price tag on them.

I donate some to a pit bull dog rescue. They love seeing me come with a box of antlers. We got Dennis from them last june.

That's awesome Scrappy. Nice looking dog. My Pit loves antlers also. This is her with her first ever find two years ago.

Massbucks awesome looking pup. Here's Dennis a couple weeks ago trying to get the deer in the back yard to play with him. Poor guy, they just ignore him.

I was out for a while yesterday, looking for sheds and checking for fresh turkey sign. I did not find either. I did see a very large mature buck, very nice rack, still attached. There was another nice buck with him. I am in Fremont County, Colorado.

Wow Butcher, finding a spike, that's pretty good... Good eye...
Found about an 8" spike shed with a little nubbin making it kind of a forky, but it was in my short grass yard after the buck had jumped a small ditch crossing the road... Would have never found it in the woods...
BTW, anyone ever find a button shed? Know a couple deer farmers and they have never been able to find one of theirs even inside the enclosures...
