I never find any sets, they do not exist.   :rolleyes:
I've hunted almost everyday of my life, the rest have been wasted.

The first sheds I ever found were a matched set. 4 pt elk sheds. I was walking down an old skid road and found one, and was all excited, walked another 50 feet and found the other one. I didn't put it together at first! Young ignorance...
I hunt, therefore I am.... I fish, therefore I lie.

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.
