This first one I found in some tall thick weeds just off the edge of a field about 15 minutes into my first walk. Luckily no squirrels had got to it so it's pretty pristine condition.
This was the second one I found. I actually spotted the rack from about 80-100 yards away, and thought it was a buck bedded down. So I started to stalk taking a step and glassing, step, glass, step, glass....for about 10 yards until I realized it was not moving. This deer was about 15 yards from a steep riverbank. Probably only been there a few days tops. No sign of what killed it.
This final rack I found was again in a thick brushy area off a field edge. No telling how long it had been there cause it's been chewed up pretty bad.
Over all, a bittersweet day. Cool to find all these racks, but sad to find them as well. Here they all are back home. I just cut the antlers off the one on the right. Probably use them for some more shed training with my dog.
