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.

. It’s no wonder my knees look like grapefruits. 
Glad to see you passing up on the beer drinking sat night to head out on Sunday only to have some luck! If you would not have found something I would be razzing you on all the fun we had!
I find myself scanning ditches along country roads, especially along fencelines…. I think I got it bad
