    Picked this good 4x side this morning :moose:

    It was about 50-70 yards in the woods off of a corn field. This came from a sorry set of woods, no cover to hold deer at all. These woods are used as a night time corridor to get to the field.

    A very fast and very imprecise measurement put it at 66 inches.

    Nice Job! No sheds here yet, all ive been finding is dead bucks. Found 4 decent dead bucks. The rifle hunters around here usually wont go look for bucks after they shot them if they didnt drop right away. Its a shame but it gives me a reason to go out in the woods this time of year.

    Yeah, I was pretty surprised to find that shed. Not only did I not expect to really find any this early, I would have expected even less to find a good one like this in that set of woods. Just goes to show, you just never know where you might find them.
