Pretty tough to get right into there bedding areas in 2 feet of snow without pushing them.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Don't push deer in order to get your first sheds of the season, they are not going anywhere!
Thankful to stumble upon this today!

Kind of a catch 22 by the author with the pic, huh?

Kind of a catch 22 by the author with the pic, huh?Why does everyone assume that to find a shed this time of year means you're pushing deer? As 7mmfan noted, it IS possible to to do it without pushing them. Who's to say that the author didn't glass and wait for the deer to leave before moving in on that shed? I found my first shed last year in January, right along side a paved county road, with no animals in sight. I get sick of the holier-than-thou attitude about this every year. Everyone I know who shed hunts (including myself) are very diligent and cautious to not to bother the animals. We belong to conservation groups, do volunteer work days throughout the year and respectfully hunt deer and elk in the fall. The herd's welfare comes first in every aspect. So it would be nice just once to not have to listen to a pious lecture just because someone found a shed in January. Just my I know my posting this won't change anything, preach on...

No preaching here, just stating the true definition of the pot calling the kettle black.Looks like a nice bone too

I helped an old lady cross the street today, doesn't mean I get to chase the next one with my truck. The OP stated he stumbled on the horn, doesn't sound like he was gassing for hours and then went and got it after the deer left. Either way congrats again on your conservation groups and all your volunteering. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
