    So I go out to do a little shed hunting yesterday and find nothing except a set of tracks walking across the field. So I’m kind of peeved because nobody has permission to be on the land. The tracks went right by one of my stands so they weren’t out to get my stand. I scratch my head a few times and figure someone must have walked on looking for sheds because mid winter(dec-feb) I was haveing 30-40 deer a night come out to the field, and alot of these deer would make their way close to the road. After aking my way back towards the truck I decide to walk through where these deer would stand hopeing to find a shed or 2. Well I found something out of place but it wasn’t a shed….It was a carbon arrow about 20 yards off the road with the veins in the direction of the road. I was not only ticked someone would shoot a deer from the road on private property but it was in the hayfield and I’m pretty sure if the farmers cows would have gotten a carbon arrow or better yet a muzzy broadhead in it’s stomach, he would be extremely upset! Grifter you haven’t been by my land lately have you? JK But anyway some people sure have alot of nerve

    Actually it did appear as though you, I mean they, missed. 20 yards and you, I mean they, missed. Must have been a crack shot

    Muskyman I feel your pain! Only it’s fourwheeler tracks. Too lazy to trespass on foot! It’s a good possibility that they could’ve walked out with one of YOUR sheds. Keep your camera out if you have one. Mine stays out until green up. Over the years I’ve got pics of 4 different people. Back before digital cams someone was even nice enough to remove my film.

    I suppose I’m not getting my arrow back either.

    Wasn’t me Brad! Besides, you only have little bucks over there…

    When it comes to shed hunting, some people have a tendency to stretch the limits and tresspass on private land. It’s a warped way of thinking. How long do you think the arrow was there? Do you think it was recent and they were poaching or was it from the last hunting season? Regardless, good thing you found it for the sake of the farmer’s cows!

    I don’t know when it was but it was either a clean miss or the mice chewed the tallow off the arrow as it layed there because the arrow looked pretty clean. The footprints on the other hand were definitely after season, maybe the 2 are connected but I can’t be for sure.

    Everything I know from this deer says he made it through this season.
