Bent over to tie my boot, it was laying right next to my foot in marsh grass! ;)

Me too! Man I'm not hunting the right areas. Some of you guys find more sheds then I see bucks during an entire season.

You guys must have a great area that holds bucks during the winter!!! That looks like some serious walking to get that many sheds in one year!!!! CONGRATS on the great shed finds.

huntin - looks like you have a sweet area to walk! My good buddy found almost 60 last year. My goal is 15+ this year. Spent almost 10hrs already! A big 11pt buck dropped his antlers over Xmas. Have him on camera 12/21 with antlers, gone on 12/28. Thought I would have no problem finding them... not the case! :cry: Buck pushes 150"s

It is always hard to tell, I assume in marsh country it is from battles during rut or gun/bow kills that are not found. Usually find the dead ones in thick bedding areas. Get sick and crawl in there to die maybe??? I'm not sure...
