seen the shed that I saw this evening, it was absolutely HUGE.
My cowboy friend wanted to go for an ATV ride this evening so we crossed the road into the river bottom. The weather has just allowed a few farmers to till in the field after a wet spring and 3 floods so we were cruising along the ranch road where there were 4 JD track tractors pulling field cultivators in this one large field, about 2000 acres in size.
These tactors extend way past the front tracks and have kind of a built in shelf on them so this is where these drivers were placing things they had found in the field, mostly duck decoys that had came from a close by lake but one tactor came along side of us by the road and was close to us for 3/4 mile along the field end.
On the front of his tractor was 1 duck decoy and 1 HUGE whitetail shed, one of the largest I've seen in a long while. My wife and friend wanted to know what I was looking and pointing at as we all drove along beside this tractor,obviously excited over what I was seeing.
I have not found any of the real big sheds this year that I knew was out there but this farmer has, right across the creek from where "Stickers" lives, 1 mile West of my house and I can hunt there.
I would have stopped and asked questions but these guys need to keep rolling to get their crops in, they have close to 11,000 acres to go, so stopping them tonight would not be good.When the work is done I intend to inquire about this shed, I'd sure like to measure it and get a pic.
