    Good luck on the shed hunting tomorrow TJF. I will be listening for turkeys in the morning if there isn't any rain and probably look for sheds for a little while. I haven't been out looking now for a little while since I've started working on the house again. Hope to put some more numbers up for us if I get some more time.

    no sheds and way too much snow in the new area. There are a lot of deer there though. We just need to snow to go. All that we could do was walk deer trails and check where they were digging in the deep snow to get at the corn and soybeans. We put on about 5 -6 miles running trails and got our exercise for the day !! Especially when you step of the trail and sink to your knees in deep snow. LOL It was a good scouting mission though and have pretty much figured out the area on where to look once the snow goes.

    Sorry to hear that Dan. I haven't been able to get out and look much lately either. I've been working on redoing my screened in porch for awhile now. Hope to get out a couple more times before it greens up too much here.

    Sorry to hear Dan !! Can't say I blame you for not getting out.

    I found and old, rotten shed last Thursday night after work... so chalk up another one for me. Britney and I are heading out tomorrow to flounder around in the snow. The darn stuff just won't melt with the cool temps we are getting. Talk to one of the landowners tonight and he just saw a buck still packing yesterday. Said it was a pretty decent buck.

    Things that make a day of shed hunting miserable...

    Filling both tanks of the truck at the gas pump. Ouch !!

    Taking a short cut on a minimal maintenance road and burying the Ford. It was a little deeper then I thought.
    Shoveling for a half hour... finally getting out only to find the road was block farther down.

    The thought of driving through the spot I got stuck again !! :rolleyes:

    We made it at a fairly high rate of speed. Britney thought maybe we should stick to better traveled back roads. :p

    Get to our spot only to get snowed on about 20 minutes into the walk. You know... the big, puffy snowflakes that turn everything white. :sad:

    We walk back to the truck and call it quits for the day.

    The truck won't start. Wasn't worried as a wire that clips on to the starter is notorious for coming on hooked... especially when you get stuck in deep snow.

    I am parked in a mud puddle. All this snow and I manage to find the only muddy spot in the area to park the truck. :rant: Crawl under the truck and hook it back up. I am a mud mess now.

    We get home and the wife is taking great joy in rubbing it in.

    Things haven't changed here much. Still a lot of snow in our good spots. We are suppose to get more snow tomorrow ( 3-5 inches ). I went for a walk last night on some bean ground that had melted off and found 3 old busted up sheds. Deer moved into the spot really late this winter and I was hoping to find something fresh but no luck there.

    So until this snow melts it is still going to be slow up here. I'll get pictures up of the oldies later. Chalk me up for 3 more.
