No, None of these are from this year. No luck so far this year, all I have found so far this year is a dead young buck.

Thanks!!!

Here is a side view of the one rack.

Nice rack there, say you found that deer dead? That sucks. I have several pick up racks, I will try to post them later in the weekend.

Yes, found this one a couple years back. The one I found dead this year is MUCH smaller. I posted a pic of it a couple weeks ago also.

Shed hunting is a great time. You really should give it a try. It is honestly a great rush to find one. I get a bigger rush finding a small shed than I do seeing a small buck in season. They are pretty hard to find, but if you really want to find them you will. Its all about how much effort you want to put in. Sure you could go out your first time and find one, but probably not, it really takes some time.

I have some of my best luck finding them tangled in thick brush on field edges. Walk some field edges you know deer have been using. Scan the ground and the brush up about 3 feet or so. You will find some just dangling in the brush. Also scan the field as you go. After you finish walking the field edges follow some of the deer trails back into the timber.

Check all jump crossings such as ditches, small creeks, fence lines, blow down trees and so forth. The impact of the jump can jar them off when they land.

If you know where they are bedding is a good place to look also. Especially in my area they like to bed in more open places in the late season. I dont know why but they do. I have found them next to their beds in the snow. They are real easy to spot these beds even from a distance because they melt all the snow where they were laying.

This should get you started off on the right foot. Give it a try and good luck!!!!!

Good Luck NUBO and I'll bet that shed hunting with snowshoes on will definitely get the cardio pumping.

The best time to look is when there is 2 inches or less of snow on the ground. The tines will really stick out and have a much darker contrast against the white ground covering. Today would be a great day to look for them here where I live. If I can sneak out today I'm gonna do a little hunting myself
