I just showed my wife this and she said “ oh you’re showing me this so I know how much I’ll get for yours when you die.” I said” haha , no I’ll be buried with them.” She thought that was funny. I don’t sell mine,ever. Each one equates to many hard hikes to find them and lots of great memories in the woods. I love to just sit and look at them or show them to people that like them.

At a certain point you know longer remember each shed. You’ll remember the unique ones, but the rest run together. I used to think I’d always remember each one, then there became too many. I sold about $4K worth one day. I don’t miss them, in fact I still think I should’ve sold more every time I have to move a pile around.
Now for those starting out in today’s world of shed hunting, this may take a while. Seems like everyone is a shed hunter now. I started in the mid to late 90’s.

:yeah: The pressure now days sure takes the fun out of it, guys going out too early and all my favorite spots haven't had a shed in them in years now. I guess when I retire I'll beat them to it! Sold a few and keep the best, want to make stuff with them when I get old...er.

I was offered $1200 for my big whitetail one time and a free casted copy of it. I said no, I was 16 I think when I found it. The money was not as important as the memories it held. I was in the woods more then than I get to be now like the rest of you said. I hardly find any now because I can't find time. I find some in the wheat fields on traffic routes still but not a lot in the woods unless I find them while hunting in the fall.

I’m in the same boat I really don’t want to part but my rafters in shop are full to the point I want to sheet rock but I won’t have anywhere to put them all
