Thought this was cool.  I've got a bunch of pics last year of the bull that carried that shed on the left in the pic.  For sure same bull, matches up from all angles, and characteristics in all the pics I have of him.  Was glad to find his shed still in good condition, and unchewed.

Here it is compared.  Not a huge bull, but thought it was neat to have taken his pic last year, and then find his shed this year.

Looks like your having a great year so far! Looks like you have a bad problem with critters chewing them up though!

Got lucky tonight, hit it late after work and was heading through the timber to follow some trails I know of when I seen the blonde forks of this shed in the dark timber.  Buried under some branches, last years drop.  Still no fresh for me...

How in the heck. I swear, some of you guys have some dumb luck how happy i would be if i ever found an elk shed. Or just a shed in general.

You just got to get out there man, enough time in the woods you'll find them.  Understand I go excessively a lot, like 4+ times a week.  Google is your friend, find out what regions the animals winter in, not just talking about wintering areas, but migration routes.  Lots of good areas to shed hunt and be perfectly legal and no affect to wintering herds.  It's pretty basic, just an animal that lives by basic rules of survival, and will be where the food is to survive.  South facing slopes is a true story, snow melts off here first, and more food on these sides.  Most important, just be where the animals are when they are shedding.  Don't need to be in contested areas to find sheds.  Hardest place to find a shed is on the westside, especially for deer because they are so spread out, but I'll find one just about every time out.  Just miles on the boots.  You won't find sheds surfing thethe net.  You can be just like any of these guys on here finding sheds, nothing special just doing it.  Good luck, hope it helps.
