Default went shed hunting

I have now gone twice for a total of about 5 hours and still have not found one shed. . . . . i strained my eyes i was looking so hard but i guess either some of the bigger bucks have not dropped or they are playing hide and seek

I normally find sheds along the side or bottom of a ridge that leads to a swamp or bedding area. Normally these are used a lot more than other areas and can improve your chances.. Good Luck

At least you get to go looking for sheds. In Central Wisconsin there is so much snow its hard to get anywhere. It took me days before I found a shed but then I found seven sheds in that area. Look hard and you will be rewarded.

i feel your pain. I've been out three times and have not found squat. I didn't find any last season either. I keep telling my Uncle that the darn Deer must drop them off on the neighbors front steps. Oh well I'll be back at it on Tuesday. Good luck ,and don't give up. Besides there's nothing wrong with a nice stroll through the woods.
