You guys are finding these in February? I have never actually been able to find a shed before. I'll be going out in a couple days hopefully.
Hey Guys, this is my first post in this forum, Tim (TJF) recommend that I start posting here..... Here is a tank of a mainframe 8 I found earlier this year.... The first side is a 4 point side with a 2" bullet off of the brow tine. It scores 73 4/8" with a 14" G2, 11 4/8" G3 and a short mainbeam at 22".... The other side is a mainframe 4 point side with a couple of character points. It scores 73" also.... Here are a couple of ATL's.... Here are a couple of ATL's of the match.... Here are better pictures of the 4 point side.... Here are both sides together.... Mark....
Hey Mark, (kansasbowhunter) first of welcome to the site. Now that is one heck of a match set. Congrats on the finds. Hope you find some more slammers this year.
Good to see you on here Mark. I would say that is a heck of a first post. :D Congrats on the set !!! Takes a very, very good 8 to score that well. Looking forward to seeing what you find this spring !! Good luck !! Tim
Mark, welcome and thanks for sharing a great set to boot. Love the ATL pix. Very nice bones! congrats.
Really great shed there Scott. You seem to find bucks and sheds with LOTS of character! congrats again. Hope you kill that bruiser next fall.
Thanks for the well wishes but I won't hunt that buck. I found it on public land that is a zoo of amish hunters. I don't want to deal with that headache.
New to the site and figured I'd throw up pics of my biggest so far this year. Found three over 70" so far. 1st is 70" 7/8, 2nd is 73" 3/4, and 3rd is 75" 7/8. The biggest was measured by an official scorer at the Iowa Deer Classic. I can post the actual measurements later if someone is interested. All three found in Southern Iowa. First picture is an ATL of the right side of the 12 point set I've found And my shed hunting through 3/7: Up to 23 now. Found the match to the 6 point after this picture! (set shown above)
What a great collection and the year is not up yet. I am lucky finding 2 - 3 a year but have yet to find any this year.
