My first elk shed
« on: May 14, 2013, 07:44:55 PM »
Found my first elk shed this year. Helped some friends with spring bear and found this guy near a tree in a steep rock shoot. Spotted it from over a mile away. For all the hunting i do I'm not one for going shed hunting so I love that I found one. Guesses on score? I'll tell ya that it has a 51 2/8" main beam!

That's a good first shed!  Spend any time trying to match it up?   :tup:

When you see the third, thin the herd.
Right now I'm somewhere picking up sheds.

After locating it I searched and searched for the other side. I'm sure that someone else has picked it up since we were in a high traffic area.

I went to pick one up last week and it was gone. I'm positive that is it from the atl pic and the second pic made me positive. Ha

Awesome shed. Good find with the spotter. How far away were you when you spotted it?

I'm guessing a little over a mile away. I was able to go back to the vehicle and then drive to the top of the drainage it was in. 30 minute round trip and I had it back at the vehicle. It was only 300 yards below the road.
