This weekends finds
« on: April 20, 2009, 12:34:10 PM »
I got out on Friday afternoon and found my biggest whitey shed yet.  It was in really bad shape so I left it on the hill but would have been 6-7 point non typical.  The tip of the main beam was split into 3 points but all were chewed up, I would have loved to have found it 2 years ago.  I also found and left a chewed up 3 point.  Sunday I went back out to a different area and found another broken tine 3 pt.  It almost matches the one I ran over last week.  :bash: I also found 10-12 cat kills.  Most were fairly recent and still had bugs working the skulls.  They were all within 2 miles of each other.  I am guessing cougar because half were mature deer, two were bucks, and the one really fresh kill had a log dragged over the top of it.  I'm not sure a bobcat could or would put the log there.  I was a ways off the trail but this area is close to town and popular a hiking spot.  The last pic is a branch doing a pretty good shed impression.

I would have hated to spot the one in the last pic from across the canyon.   :bash:
I've hunted almost everyday of my life, the rest have been wasted.

No kidding.  It was only about 20 yards away when I started towards it and couldn't tell until I was almost to it.  I was going to post it with a "what would this score" headline and see if anyone bit. :chuckle:
