Never saw the buck, and only a handful of pictures middle of the night. Hoping he changes things up and takes up residence. We guessed him to be in the 150s. I really should put the tape on them as it’s definitely the best pair I’ve found.

Damn it all you guys keep teasing me with all those possible handles. I've been looking for some sheds but haven't come across any yet.

Found a shed tonight that looked familiar. Had last yrs match to it in my shed pile. He gained a ton this yr. Lots more mass and length. Hope he has another jump next yr!

Pretty sure this is a buck that has lost his antlers. He looks kinda sad without them.

2.5 miles in the woods today. Tracks up the ass. Didn't find a single shed.

I just had a couple big bodied shed bucks looking for sunflower seeds under our bird feeders. These were definitely not young bucks. Maybe once we're down to a foot or so of snow in the woods I'll try looking for antlers. You know times are tough when you have mature bucks 30' from a house looking for a few sunflower seeds in the middle of the afternoon.

Found a few more on my run today. Rare for me to find a matching set next to each other. Are those from several years ago? I ask as they are very white and chewed on. What do you guys do with your sheds or antlers from deer kills? I am beginning to think it is time to just throw my antlers back in the woods. I never look at 90% of them. A few have special meaning and memories and I will keep them.

I've been out a few times and haven't found any. Going to try again today. If anyone has any that they have no use for and no longer want them maybe we can work something out. I'm alway looking for something that would make for a decent knife handle.

Sheds make a pile for decoration until we stop finding them, then they're go to a different pile.
