    I found these this year.... The pair scored in the 170's and the single one was never scored.Biggest and only sheds I've ever found. I guess I was lucky!:tu: Sorry for the bad pics. they make them look kinda small. But if I need to I can take a pic with the tape measure around em. Sorry for no in situ. They were about 15 feet from each other.16 points

    Big ol' buck like that are smart. You probably won't see him until the rut is on. Its like they are nocturnal out of the rut.

    Just knowing a buck like that is out there would have me going crazy. I haven't seen anything that big were I live ever. I would try moving some trail cams around to get some pics of him. And if you get pics of him... post em :tu:

    Awesome sheds! That gets the heart pumping for next year. Just read an article about using orbital gland scent on licking branches in the summer months to get more pictures of mature bucks. Might be worth looking into if you're unable to get pics, I'm going to try it! Good luck this fall!

    Now you have to close the deal like I did with having a match set to killing the deer. I have four sheds, 2 singles and one 12 point match set, off of my 11 pointer that I killed in December. Here is the full story!
