    Went to check a camera today and not much recent action on it. Only 2 more weeks of bow/buck season here in KS but I'm still at it. Had to laugh at myself though when I thought "man I'm going to take this down and hike it into that new shed spot to see who's in there and if any have dropped yet"!!!

    So that got me to thinking you might be a shed addict if........

    You insist on bringing binocs and taking the back roads on any kind of trip with the family. (shopping, etc.)

    You will hike a mile to get to that white thing that looks like tines sticking up way over on that far hill.....only to get there and realize it's just a rib cage.
    Sometimes they keep looking better the closer you get until you actually get there!

    I've got some more but I know you guys have some too!

    Every small buck I've passed this year I've literally said to myself, or on film "I hope I can find his sheds" lol. This started in about October.

    This snow we got is really going to suck for sheddin' this year. Last year I was spoiled.

    Drove 3 hours one way last spring to get a set of "locked up" heads a friend at work saw while working around a county road bridge. Turned out to be 2 heads someone had thrown out of their truck going over the bridge that were not locked together at all. There was a piece of skin from one that had just gotten stuck to the other one probably while they were laying in a pile of hides, etc. The info on where to find them came from a non-hunter and I guess I should have asked way more questions before I went out there. Definately an exciting drive out there with a letdown upon finding them. But I knew if I didn't go check it out I would regret it so you never know!
