Found first shed today for the year 2010, saw the points sticking up out of the snow while driving my tractor along a levy next to a fence. The antler has no brow tine, 3 points on the main beam, similar to one I found last year but larger.It got me all fired up so drove around for 20 minutes longer with no luck. A few more days of these 40 degree temps and I'll be able to take the ATV out to look for more. Tried walking in the timber, snow was just too deep.

Picked up another one this evening, very small 4 point, I saw it at 30 yards out, you would think I would have no trouble finding the sheds off some of those big boys, so far no luck. Hope to branch out this weekend, go back further on their trails, still haven't made it to the main bedding area. Snow is nearly all gone, hope to find some more and post pics soon.

Found another shed this afternoon, it is a spike about 7 inches long,it was in a trail at a fence crossing going into my beanfield. With at least one B&C buck, and 3 real good bucks close to the house all fall/winter a guy would think I could find some big ones. I've heard the saying, "finding a needle in a hay stack" before, well todays shed was exactly that. Also saw people on ATVs across the fence North, I would imagine they are looking for sheds on my neighbor.
