    This is a little late, but I figure some guys will still check it out.

    I found my biggest set to date on March 6th while exploring some new public land. I scored the set out at 162" with an 18" spread credit. Beating my previous best by almost 15". I couldn't believe the mass in the beams and the time length on them. And if there's one thing I like most on bucks, it's browtines and he sure has some cool ones.

    What a find! I found a similar set this year. Maybe not as big but they had mass that was incredible. [​IMG][​IMG]

    Great looking sheds! I can't find a shed by accident, let alone looking for them. :biggrin:

    I actually tripped on a large shed one time while I was changing a stand location.
