Post Your Shed Pics

[dana]

I'm getting anxious to hit the hills and start looking for tine but with all the snow we've got this year it'll probably be still a month away. So to ease the wait (or make it worse) post up some shed pics if ya got them. I'll start off.

Dana-You'll be unhappy to know that the guys who been finding fresh bone down here have all been chewed already and these were a couple of weeks ago. Must be a bumper crop of mice this year?

I'm gonna take up playing the flute and I'll become the official pied piper for shed hunters in BC. ;)

[valleycowboy]

talked to a buddy yesterday,he seen 10 decent bucks in his yard a few days ago,all still packin.definately gettin the itch to get out!!

[steveo32]

dana i am up to 9 sheds this year and the biggest one is a heavy 2 point for muleys and for moose it is the paddle i found in the middle of the road at work :)

steve

p.s. nothing like your find for this year ;)

[dana]

Steveo,
I'm up to 18 thus far, the majority have been found while working. Found a tiny 3 point moose shed the other day while sledding to work. Fresh blood all over the base. Looked like he must have dropped it that night. Funny how those little farts hang onto them so long. Saw a little forky muley the other day still packin both sides. Maybe I'll find his sheds and add them to my tally. :) You got any pics of that slug you found last year????

[Alpine85]

Dana, The pic with you and the " Red Lumby Grad Jacket" is awsome, those are three kick ass sheds. I'm up to 11 sheds this year and a dead 4x3 muley. I will post up some shed pics pretty quick.

[dana]

Terry,
That pic is all I have of those sheds. I sold them years ago and really regret it. I wish I still had them as part of my collection. That middle shed in particular. It is a 210 mainframe typical.

[steveo32]

Steve i will e-mail you the pics of the hog i found last year while working if you will post them up for the boys to drool over !!!!!

Matt told me about those sheds the other weekend, some things a guy has to do. Plenty more huge tine out there waiting for you. Who knows maybe that goof Doctor in Kelowna who buys antlers/bucks has them on his wall. Telling storys to people how he found them in the Interior somewhere:roll:

[Alpine85]

Dave
Those are not all from this year. Three of the whitetails on the freezer are from this year, haven't picked up any fresh muleys in region 8 thus far.

[dana]

Those are some great pics guys, keep them comin'. Just can't wait for the snow to be gone and smell that dirt once again.

Dana do you shed hunt where the deer from your hiddy hole winter, and if so do you find big ones from bucks you have never knew they were there?

[dana]

Here's one of my most treasured finds, a North Thompson mountain caribou shed.

Dana,

Is the fence pic a collection from more than 1 season?

Why don't you come down to the Fraser Valley and find me some BT drops.....

Here is an ATL BT drop from a few weeks back. Just remember that this picture doesn't do justice to the thick jungle I'm usually cursing through......

[dana]

Husky,
Let's put it this way, I've only killed one buck (MnT) that I have picked up the sheds off of in previous years. The majority of the sheds I have I've never seen hide nor hair of the bucks that carried them in or out of season.

Lap,
The pic with the sheds on the fence was from several years ago and it has some of the bigger sheds of a combined collection of my buddy and I. Definately way more than one year of big shed finds there.

[mark]

Heres one i took a pic of, it was a good luck charm as 20 min after i picked it up i shot a 4 point. I found lots last hunting season, Ill go take a pic of em right now!

And last and least, the smallest shed ive ever found. I usually leave 3points or smaller in the bush, but this lil guy was to cute, and still has a patch of velvet stuck to it!

Three of these are from yesterday and one (lower left) I found today. All are right sides - gotta go back and find the lefties.

This was my first one of the year, mid December before major snow covered everything.

[steveo32]

dana you also found one shed off the buck i took in 06' So i guess that counts kinda:lol: Nice sheds mark

steve

[dana]

Mark,
That's a nice whitey for sure.

Canuck,
Looks like you are off to a good start for the year. I've got to find me a good whitey shed area. I used to find alot in the OK when I was a kid. Wish I had of taken pics of them back then. I can remember finding some dandies.

[dana]

Steveo,
Did you get your mount back and compare that shed with it? That would be cool if it was off of your buck.

[srupp]

nice sheds..Yours too Gate..lol..

awesoome whitey there Mark...AMAZING MASS ...

what do you do with the sheds??I know a place that I found over 30 SIDES of racks in a deer wintering area..in just over 4 hours..

My guess would be the gang area, ive found tons of sheds out there in years past. As for what i do with them, heck i dont even know, ive packed tons out of the bush in my day, but i dont have that many :confused: :rolleyes:

Its amazing how some "ghosts" never get sighted. Some of the biggest monsters just end up as dirt!

[dana]

Srupp,
Being a shedhead is an addiction. The more you collect the bigger your pile gets. In the past I've sold when things started getting out of hand. I used to carry pretty much every thing out of the bush, now I don't. Now I take a pic and hang the sheds up in trees if they aren't in good shape or if they aren't big 'uns. As for the big 'uns, I pack them out and my pile is taking over the living room ;) . The only thing I'll sell now is moose sheds. I spend a lot of time out looking for bone and it allows me to get to know new areas intimately. We make camping trips out of my passion and we get to explore some awesome areas around the province. It all goes into the mental data base for future hunting trips. :)

[Canuck2]

Here's a moose shed I found in the Chilcotin a few years ago. The arrangement of points on the brow palm allows it to stand on end without support.

This shed would be good for a hat hanger. hunter 1947.

[hunter1947]

I give all my sheds to the native people ,they use them for there games. http://www.huntingbc.ca/forum/images/icons/icon7.gif hunter 1947.

[mark]

So what gives, over 2000 members here, and only 9 people have any nice shed pics?????

[WoodOx]

So, whats the trick? Although I cant say ive honestly gone out into the biush to specifically find sheds, i never find the buggers out hunting inthe fall.

Are there any tricks as to where animals tend to drop em? I supposeprobbaly not, but I mean im sure it would help to know where the animals winter...

Ive also heard walking fencelines works well, as when a deer jumps a fence, the impact when he lands often makes his horns drop.

Would it be alot to ask to post some tips for budding shed hunters? =D

[boxhitch]

Just a short ride up one creek. Nice rubs on these 8" trees.

[hunter1947]

Will post a couple elk sheds latter this week ,don't keep them very often ,but still have 2 left ,hunter 1947.

[bighornbob]

So, whats the trick? Although I cant say ive honestly gone out into the biush to specifically find sheds, i never find the buggers out hunting inthe fall.

You never find them in the fall, becuase you are probably hunting or scouting where the deer are in the fall. The deer may not even be in that area when the antlers are falling. Hit the areas where you think the deer are wintering and head out right now. I know a few guys in kelowna that go out every weekend starting about a month ago and they usually find some sheds.

Posted my Mark
"So what gives, over 2000 members here, and only 9 people have any nice shed pics?????"

I am still waiting for the snow to melt. On the winter range we have anywhere between 5 to 125 cm of snow with the average around 65 cm. Lots of deer around and some major trails, but with all the new snow in the last month, most of the bone will be buiried. Have to wait until it warms up some more.

[littlebear.]

[WoodOx]

Thanks BHB - now to determine where the deer migrate in winter. In all honestly I think many deer stay in the general vicinity unless of very high range. At the very least they move into thicker cover where the snow doesnt pile as high.

Nice lookin' quad there Boxhitch. I've ridden that brand before and have never had any luck with the brakes on the damned thing! :lol:

[steveo32]

Kechika,
Sweet Sheds. Thanks for postin those bad boys up.

308,
You should see the beauty fresh matched set I found at work yesterday. They were laying side by side on top of the snow. 180 mainframe with 5 inches of extras, one being a melted looking dropper. Very unique. Too bad my camera is broke or else I'd post up.

[elkguide]

Just a short ride up one creek. Nice rubs on these 8" trees. I assume you tossed a diamond on that ol doggy before ya headed down right? hate to see a needless rodeo.

Basket Hitch for the boxes is run through the cinch ring, locks them down. The rest is just sort of lashed on as they were picked up. Lots of rope, with 'special' knots. Antlers are in-and-about both boxes, one side has a sheep skull and horns from wolf/winter kill.
This stuff is for me. I save the rodeos for the hunters gear :twisted:

Hey wayne, why do those elk sheds look like they were sawed off at the base???
