Thanks guys. I have a few more photos to share, but I haven't had the time to get them downloaded. I'll try to get them posted soon... busy chasing thunder chickens this week.

wow that would be fun having a dog that can find antlers.

Here are a few photos of some sheds that I found about a month ago. The first one is this nice little four point with a pretty cool kicker of of the g2.


The second one of the day was this nice four point laying tines down. Mid to upper 50's.


The last one of the day was this little dinker. The squirrels didn't leave much for me.

Here is a group of sheds that I found in the last week of March. I found eight sheds that day making it my best of the year numbers wise. The first one was chewed pretty bad.


The next four were all found within a couple of minutes of each other on a small west facing point.




First time I ever found a spiker set laying side by side.


My next find was a real heartbreaker.



I have several photos of this buck on the hoof. He only scraped the velvet off of one side of his rack. Has a pretty good sized body. Rack probably would've scored about 130". The coyotes chewed up the velvet covered side of the rack pretty bad. Sucks. I put out some cameras in late September and got about a dozen pictures of him by this scrape before he disappeared in the first part of October. Never saw him on the hoof. Just sucks to find him like this. Here are a few trail camera photos.





Pretty sure the next two sheds are a set. I found them on the same hillside about two or three hundred yards apart.



here is a better look at it out of the brush.


The last shed of the day was the biggest and probably the second biggest one I found this year. 64" five point. I believe I found his match the day before which is a upper 50's four point. Stuck out pretty good in the picked beans.

Thought I ought to post the last of my shed pictures from this spring. (I know, not already) I was pretty happy to find this first set. I have a few trail cam pictures of him and also passed him up with the bow. Kind of nice to be rewarded with his sheds.







Here's a couple of him on the hoof.





This one is pretty big. The brow tine is chewed up so it can't be measured. This shed scores over 60" as a three point. It's really heavy and has nice long tines.



I found these next two sheds next to each other, but they are definitely not a set.





I'm pretty sure that the bigger four point shed is the right side of this nine point. Great buck. Wish I would've found the five point side too. My buddy Brett and I both saw this guy while bow hunting, but neither one of us got a shot. This shed scores in the low 60's even with the squirrel damage.





I took a bunch of pictures of this last shed. One of the coolest ones I have ever found. Reminds me more of a moose or a caribou then a whitetail.

My wife and I went to Deerfest in Oshkosh, WI with a few friends back in July here are a few photos. I didn't take many, but there was quite a bit to see there. Drank a lot of beers and had a lot of fun.

The North American Shed Hunters Club was at the event and I got to get my hands on a shed they just bought from a guy in northern Illinois (I think) who must've really needed the money. I think this thing scores like 115" if I remember right. Not really a very big main frame, but the three daggers coming off the G2 are incredible.






Met Pat and Nicole.


These next two pictures are of the new Wisconsin record typical bow kill. The first one is the bow kill and the second one is a mount of his sheds from the previous year.




Met Terry Drury.


And the Bone collector gang.


Saw this set of sheds at a booth where some guys were selling mineral. I asked them what my chances were to get my hands on them and they said have at it. I found out they were off of a pen raised buck, but they are huge. One of the biggest set of sheds I've ever had my hands on.
