    Peakrut- Keep us up to date on how it is going. I can't wait to start shed hunting. I usually start in about 2 more weeks. Still been seeing a lot of bucks with both sides still.

    1/22/09 I went out today from 09:00-12:45 and did not find a shed but Yote tracks everywhere.
    Here are my first pics of my journey from now until December 31st, 2009 as I go from shed hunting to
    spring scouting through the summer glassing to the fall hunt.

    Let the year begin:

    1/30/09 11:00 AM until about 01:30PM out with dukemichaels and found 1 dead doe.
    The hunting convo with this dude is something special for sure.
    A lot of old sign around with very small deer beds. Get after it again next week.

    That's 'possum fur. Not 'coon fur. Sheesh, city boys. ;)

    I'm not allowed to pick up sheds where I deer hunt. Maybe I'll just go take pictures of them. Or not.

    I was a little worried when I scrolled down through your pictures that there'd be a pair of boxers in the snow next.

    Got out this Friday for about 4-5 hours and about 5 miles later at least.
    First set of woods we hit (Dukemichaels and I) found us with a full racked buck and a half rack.
    Plus as a bonus buck a fresh dollar bill laying right on the ground.

    Then after Mike found a fresh rack all of a sudden their it was a piece
    of antler that had broken off from a fight:
    [​IMG]

    Then to close out the day I stumbled upon a deer skull with spine still attached
    cleaned up real good:
