The trail can picture was from 2011. He might not have put that g4 on this year, which is what I am thinking you are referring to by thinking it's not the same antler. There is 2 different growing periods between the picture of the whole deer and the picture of the shed. That's how I read the post. Great shed!
I went out yesterday and still have feet of snow to deal with at 1800 feet. Didn't find anything other than a bloody moose track that I followed for a half mile trying to figure out the cause of all the blood. Didn't seem to be the Ice crusted snow caused it because it was never in or near the hoof print, drops were constant and well outside the prints. Never found a cause or the moose.
