So with the gf out of town I figured I better capitalize on the w-end with some shed hunting. On Saturday my day started at 8am and ended at 6pm. On this day I searched 3 different properties and my only payoff was a dead buck but I will be back to one of them as I saw 2 bucks that were a minimum of 130″ still wearing both sides. On Sunday I rested up until noon and headed out. I found my 3rd matched set of my life in the first hour. In 15 years of searching I’ve never found them laying so close to each other. In a period of 5 years these are 2 of 4 I’ve found within 20 yrds of each other, the deer love to soak up the sun under some tall pines. There’s a ton of snow in my areas yet so hopefully the thaw continues. Although I’m praying for some fresh stuff to rule out unproductive areas where the 2 big boys are!! Sounds like a fair amount of bucks are holding strong so don’t give up! Good luck to all searching.
