Well this weekend wasn't what I expected. I didn't get out at all Saturday, spent the day with my daughter and had a great visit. I did get out today with a friend and his daughter. He found 2 sheds and I was able to pick up 2 sheds. Pretty slow compared to what I'm used to, but I was happy to just get out. I'm at 71 now.   Chris |

I was driving down the road today from scouting out at the park.And had some deer run out in front of me.4 does and a Buck that still had his rack.They jumped the fence and headed across the field and one side of the rack fell off as he was running.It fell off in private property.So i didn't get to get it.But i couldn't help to think ...whats the chances of that happening again.

Chances of seeing one fall off.......slim to none! I believe if I didn't make a dash from the truck to retrieve it......I would have to find the property owner and beg to get that antler.....to have the shed you saw come off the buck.....one way or another I would have to get my hands on it! |

I am sure it's still laying in the pasture were it dropped off.It was 8 ptr.
I just watched a video that Spysar sent to me to watch.The Bennoit brothers tracking deer in New Hampshire.But the guy was tracking this deer a full day and it was in late season.He was closing the distamce on the big buck.When he comes to a bush and there laid both antlers.The buck had just dropped them in the fresh snow right in front of him..

The size of the rack would be what would make me go nuts or not!
If it was a real big rack I'd definitely want to go get that shed Winnie!

I'd be asking the landowner for permission to shed hunt.
