Still too much snow too really hit it here in ec Minnesota. Had the bulldozer out on the line fence couple days ago clearing and run one decent old drop. Ill post a pic when I get to the computer. In the high 50* today, so it won't be long till I'm out looking.
What a nice day! I took my daughter for a Harley ride then to her singing lessons. After that I decided to go for a walk. I had a hour and half to go for daylight. I started in on a trail that I have not walked for about two weeks. I then came up on the creek where I walked Saturday and found a four point shed that was a fresh one. It still had some goop on the pedicle end of the antler. I was only about 10 minutes into my walk when I found that one too. I then walked up on the hill where my buddy HOSS hangs out at. The herd of deer were hanging up there looking to head to the field. I then did a circle through that area and came up on another 4 point shed that still had blood on it. I did another circle to see if I could find another one but no luck! I did not see HOSS so I hope that he is still sporting so that I can find them next time I go out. I will be trying to hit it hard now that I leave in 11 days for Jamaica! Here are my sheds from today!
Snagged another one today after a short walk...hitting my prime stuff tomorrow with the day off. Weather trying to touch 70 all week I'm excited.
What a day again! I went to my honey hole today and did not find any for 4 hours. I then walked on the edge of some property that is owned by another owner who has been told to stop trespassing on the property that I walk. I then noticed a small 4 point shed in his field about 10 yards off the property line. Since it was on his property I did not go get it since I am sure I would not of been welcome. He was out earlier in the evening and I am sure he was watching. So I chalked that one up as a possible. I did go on a 4 wheeler ride and found three others. Here they are:
Yesterday I went for a walk and this is what I found. Here is a picture of the 4 point shed in the field that is owned by a disgruntled man that I can not go get! I also am going out again today!
Went for a walk this morning after the rain that we got. I was not even 5 minutes into my walk when I found a nice 5 point side. Then I jumped a herd of about 20 deer with one of them sporting a half rack. I looked all over the property until my legs got tired and did not find it. I did manage to find another small 4 point shed. Here are my pictures from todays finds and half racked buck.
I was mowing some trails and strut areas in the timber yesterday and spotted an antler. I jumped off the tractor for about 15 minutes and picked up a total of 4. That brings me to 12 total.
I have taken a few with my phone, but they are crappy. I will get some decent ones taken and get them posted so you can get them entered in the contest. I forgot the last 4 still strapped to the back of the tractor seat. lol I have yet to find anything big though. I have a bad feeling that the neighbor helped himself to some.
It is getting a little green out there so I hope that HOSS drops his sheds soon. Here are my big ones for the year so far! 73 2/8" "Set A" 66 1/8" "Set A" 65 3/8" "Set B" 63" "Set B" 62 4/8" 55 3/8" 55 1/8" The rest are under 50" so I hope to score some more big ones! Hoss you better hurry and drop buddy. I jumped two deer today and Hoss was one of them. Both had full racks and both are 140 or better bucks!
You got it Tim :D Here is the 'dozer shed' lol here is the other snag.. had no luck on my day off, back at it this weekend though. They gotta be somewhere!
Thanks Tim, yeah im going to put a tape to both soon. Hard to tell how really long the shed i ripped up with the dozer has been there...it was pretty burried in the canary grass, I've literally probably walked over it 100 times!
