    So, as I was tromping around in the woods today, I was thinking, how far do most people see a shed? Occasionally I may see one 20-30-40 yards out, but for the most part I find mine inside of 10 feet.

    For whatever reason, probably about 75% of my sheds this year have been basically at my feet when I saw them (drawback to shed hunting in the snow?)

    So, how good are your eyes at spotting the bone on the ground?

    I find most of them at my feet. Exept for yesterday I saw that 1 at 30 yards.
