    I found some sheds today while running feeders and cameras. Unfortunately I also found one of my old favorite bucks remains too. All in one piece, at least his skeleton was. Good head and antlers, looked like damn yotes probably got him. I had him on camera not long ago and he looked good. Guess a winter pack of coyotes finally ran him down. Sucks.

    Thanks, as it turned out it was not the buck I thought it was. I had Jaws on camera right up through last night and he is a full ten rather than a nine but shaped really similar. There were several bucks on camera this time around that I've never seen before and this dead head may well be one I wasn't aware of...odd, I don't think I've ever had this many new bucks just show up out of thin air before at one time. Not that I'm complaining, a few of them are nice.

    Here are the two sheds I found yesterday, matched set and here's a pic of the buck they came from. I love trail cams, lol.

    I guess we need to get a captain selected so that we can get a team score posted and updated. I started the team thread and have been keeping it updated with check ins and score just because I made the initial post but that has no bearing on team captain, just needed to be done. If anyone wants to be captain or make a nomination please feel free to do so, I couldn't care less about being a captain personally but I'll do it if no one else wants to do it.

    Nice sheds. It always sucks to find a buck like that.
    Season ends here on the 10th and they should start dropping sheds lat March early April.

    Good job guys, I added Chevs on the first post. Everyone will have to let me know if the posted totals are correct as we go along, I have trouble keeping track.

    Lol, exactly why I said you guys needed to keep an eye on the totals. Sometimes the posts reporting sheds overlap and I don't catch them as different finds or miss them altogether.
    No I don't think deadheads count.
    We still have one team member that hasn't checked in. Looks like we're leading so far with the next highest count being 15.
