'21 Shed Thread

[Mortenson]

My oldest and I made it out for our 1st hike. We still can't get inside our gate due to snow, so we parked by the road and headed toward our best winter food plot. These were all found in or within 150 yards of it. Quite a bit of snow in the timber yet. Let's see what you guys are finding.

Maybe another week they will be all shed in SC Kansas

Found one side of my target buck and 3 other 2-3 year olds sides. I was delighted, could see that G3 from 40 yards away

A couple weeks ago I saw this cage was busted up bad from a distance. There’s so much snow I just put it off until today while shed hunting I wanted to check it out. I was trying to figure out what happened, 2 of the 3 fiberglass posts were busted and I was attempting to bend the cage back into shape before I even noticed both sheds. The cage is salvageable, found 2 sheds and the Norway inside the cage is just fine.

Forky was all fired up

Our shed season doesn't really start til April. The big stags still have both antlers.

That is a monster wantgo! I'd love to see what he will look like this fall.

I actually think they were different deer!

Sheds will be falling off a bit early this year since so much of the US had such a brutal cold snap. Stress is what does it, and so much snow cover and cold will definitely stress them. Get out and look for sheds - I bet they’re dropping like flies now

Update: found the other side of my target buck in a little piece I didn’t check over the weekend! Another decent shed 30 yards from it. Must have had a bachelor group pass through and got very, very lucky.

Congrats! He's a beauty. Any history or guesses on his age? Looks pretty mature.

Couple quick walks the past 2 days yielded a slightly frozen pond shed and a nice 2.5 yr old. Happy campers.

Wow Mort... Either you've got some big boys surviving, or you're better at finding these than I am.

We've found a matched set on accident. My 7 yearold is pumped

Yesterday was by FAR my best day ever. Found 21, then another 5 today. Four match sets ! 10" of snow kept the critters off them for a change. (I found a couple more after the pic :-))

Top row, just right of center... what's that one look like? Have a closer pic?

 

[bigeight]

Very funky. It was a match set. About 1 ' apart. The other side had a 26" main beam . Busted G 3 and 4 and had a 4" flier between the brow and G2.

I have pictures from him this past season only. My best guess based on body size was he was 4.5, but without previous history aging him might be a crapshoot, this pic he looks 3.5. Tons of nighttime pics this year but maybe 2 during daylight. Thats what it takes around here for them to make it through the season.

Pretty cool. I wonder what that busted off part looked like?
