    Shed Hunting Today...

    Well i went out for the 5th time this year still unsuccessful so i decided to try a different area. It was raining/snowing and pretty warm so rather than quading to an area i wanted to go which i would of gotten stuck i stayed close to my house. I hiked all morning and seen about 50 elk, and atleast 30 does (or bucks.) I ended up not finding anything and went home for a bite to eat.

    After a quick snack i went out for another look around, i walked around for a few more hours and stumbled upon a whole bunch of deer. I ended up watching a bald eagle feast on a pretty fresh elk kill for about 15 minutes. Then i came across a sh*tload of turkeys which was startling to see, guess i will check that out around april 15th. I eventually got bored and decided to call it quits so on the way back to the quad i found a nice 5 point whitetail shed. I looked for the matching set and ended up finding a real heavy 4 point about 50 yards away that didn't seem like a match. Unfortunately it was badly chewed up and in rough shape, i wasn't able to
    find the other side of the 5 point so I buggered off back home.

    Here a few pics of the sheds:

    Part 2: I went out this morning again and went for a long walk until i found this little thing, man it was old.
    Off again in a few minutes hopefully to find a fresh one.


    When you find a fresh rub out shed hunting is it worth looking at the base it or is it just a good sign? Another question i have is if anyone knows if the elk have dropped yet? Thanks
