I won't dig em out of boxes but I do usually take a few pictures each month during the spring. Here are a few months worth from Feb and March of 07.

I haven't been out too much in the past couple years, but here's a few of what I have (the spike is actually just my smalles blacktail I've ever shot  :) ). The one on the bottom right is a Muley.

Heres a days worth last year(not this spring).  As you can imagine, the pile is a little big.  NO bearman, you can't make calls out of them.

 Holy smokes. Are there any types of places you seem to find more Doug, I/E leeward slopes, thick timber, etc.?

Dman, I've always been told South facing slopes (they are the warmest), and then the top 2/3 of the hillside. The one Muley I found was on a south facing slope on the very top of the ridge..

but I actually kicked one last year...... It's a good thing I know what an antler sounds like

I have done that myself..the shed was under a fern and when I kicked/stepped on it, I thought "wow, that sounded different".. I also stepped one a small deer shed one day, then found it the next day. It was in a bottleneck where a trail and downed tree intersect.

I know of a certain moose shed that almost got a truck parked on top of it.

I found 27 muley sheds about four years ago during the rifle hunt. Gamey found me resting on the side of the road (He was lost), and gave me a ride back to camp with 8 tied to my pack.

Here is a funny pic from last Turkey season with my son. He is getting the bug for sheds.

Here are some sheds I found this year...well..the elk ones are. The deer one is an old find. I tripped over the matching set of 5 points...they were just a few feet from each other.

yeah it's on here somewhere, a friend of mine painted it for me so I just thought I would share it with all of you, pretty nice don't you think.  :chuckle:

As for the broken horn, it is actually a spike with a piece of velvet hanging off the longer one, and the other is broke off about 4 inches from the base that is why I thought it was a 2 point. (meat hunt)  :chuckle:
