Snow at my cabin and this one was just laying by the driveway.

Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Every father should remember that one day his children will follow his example instead of his advice.

Finally found my first blacktail sheds. First find was a nice fork set. Found a cool 3 point the next weekend. Have only found one fresh brown two point shed so far, but in two times out in the same area I’ve come up with 7 sheds total.

Awesome, what elevation you working around? Not trying to ask to much, just saw the snow in the pic so I assumed it was higher elevation.

All were found between 800’-900’. It was right after that lowland snow. I went out yesterday to the same area and couldn’t turn up a single shed. I spent half the day trying to find the match to the 3-point but no luck. Lot harder to see them with no snow. Or I just already found the “easy” ones in that area.

On Thursday I had a two point mule deer still packing his passenger side.

The WT I've had on winter cams ,lost antlers by February.
That buck pic I posted in ,did your big buck survive the season.

Saw 8 or 10 bucks packing 1 or both sides last Thursday on a hike. But I would say the majority are all dropped.

My brother has found 3 nice ones on his place so far. One set that's a decent 3 point!

This unit is notorious for weak thirds. Not this one. Cool G1 & G2. Give him 2 or 3 more years
did you have a good hike by yourself? It’ll probably be your last.

Nice one. No secrets disclosed here. I have seen quite a few trucks parked at local spots the last few weekends so I’m sure he wasn’t out there alone.

Posted in the 2024 thread by accident yesterday - don't want to relive that year so better post here!

Put a few miles in trying to break in the new boots and found a few.  Nothing big but its a start.
