First Shed of 2010

I went out on saturday to see if any deer are dropping yet. Started to walk a fence line and found this little guy within 10 minutes.

That's not a "shed", is it?  Looks like it was busted off fighting.  Or am I seeing it wrong...?
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Looks like it was busted off and it also looks like it could be a year or two old.  :dunno:

Nice find.
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

Its definitely been out there for a year or too. I looked at the break and thought it looked a little unusual but never thought of the possibility of it breaking off from a fight.  I will try to get some more pics up soon.

Got some more pics of it for you guys. I put a box of shells next to it to help judge the size and got a closer shot of the break area. Im not sure if that is velvet on the back that never came off or what it is.

Nice - thanks for the added pics.  Moose battles can be viscious, just like elk when they really go off the deep end over cows.  They go nuts and stuff gets broken.

Cool shed. Very nice find! I saw a bunch of deer coyote hunting this last weekend and did not see any with antlers. I did not find any sheds eather.
I felt like a one legged cat trying to bury a terd on a frozen pond!

I'd love to see the bull that he was fighting when he broke that thing off at the base like that.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield
