Please, don’t mention turkeys yet…Shed hunt until 9:30-10 when the gobbler leaves his hens and gets stupid.

Found last years right side to a buck i call “trying to be a 12pt”. He was a typical 10 with attempts at kicker points on both G2s. I have the left side I picked up last year. Really wanting to find this years sheds. I’d say he was at least a 2 year old last year so he’s going to be a target this coming year for sure
As I found it.
And uncovered
His brow wasn’t an inch and that little kicker on his G2 isn’t an inch (hard to see in pic) but he wants to be. He was an 11pt this year as one of the kickers still wasn’t quite an inch.

Squirrels are slow compared to porcupines. They can devour a good shed in.a week if they set their focus to it.
Agree. No squirrels or porcupines in that part of VA. apparently. Would be only splinters left if that were ayear old where I am.
Plenty of squirrels and coyotes but agree that it's odd to find old sheds that clean (has one small chew mark on it).

2022 Shed Hunting Thread
how are you New England fellas finding these consistently? I have had no problem finding sheds in NJ/ PA but rarely find any since moving to NH with the lower density. I scout a healthy amount in the off season I keep track of where the bucks are in the antler shedding phase, without bothering...

@Mitchellfarmer1982 that last one looks like an AR shed for sure. Did you pick the first 2 up in MO? Bigger deer up there for sure.
The time and date are correct. That is on a NWR and it turned to sanctuary November 15th every year. We don't see rut until second or third week of November here.
Got it. I thought you meant this pic was from last Sunday.
Another long hike and just one broken antler found. Makes for a long day.

Went out Tuesday evening for a hour after work, and walk a field again that I’ve walked out 3 times the past two weeks, and since a week ago there was two fresh sheds. Then this morning went out and found these two matching sheds, and then walked 6 miles the rest of the afternoon and got skunked.
