I've proudly worn those shoes before. I know 1 day I covered 13 miles looking for sheds and came back with nothing. But on the bright side, be glad you can walk 7.92 miles in the woods, not many people can say that. Nice day anyways...

found all three of this guys within twenty feet of each other. Never did find the right side. Will be back there in a month after they are all dropped.

I'm pretty terrible at finding sheds, so I was pretty surprised to find this one on new years eve, in the dark.... I basically tripped over it, on a death march 5 miles out of a flooded reservoir, when our boat broke down at dark.

Not 100% sure those ducks were worth that hike out through miles flooded fields and woods... and roads.

Yeah, that's back home in NV. I'm in a new spot in CO. Don't know where they winter close to me.
I've seen groups of bulls in south park the last few times we've been driving through to go skiing. That's not too far from you. There's a SWA off of 9 that I think would be a good place to check for sheds. Need to do that sometime...

South park always has bulls and people. That SWA isn't a bad idea. Didn't see any sign when I was in there a lil over a month ago though. Just need to get out. Figured I might try and shoot some dogs and check out thirtynine mile and black.

Nice work Ivorytip... impressive. It's been slow going over here... keeping my chin up. Fully aware I'll only find a couple a day the way I'm being impatient for the snow to melt... found 1 on my lunch hr.
17 miles 13 hrs 7 sheds... WAY behind.

they are dropping way early this year, last few years they weren't really dropping until march around here, give or take a few but seems like I'm glassing many bucks with red heads already, been nice cuz I'm not dealing with the typical antler hunters yet.
