Lets start this off with a fresh find from yesterday.  By the looks it was shed about half way through the storm.  Now to find the other side.

I found these on my 2006 moose hunt to the Yukon, for the amount they are bleached they were a season old.  This is a shot on our way out of camp to our pic up point.

My first entry for the month. Both of these were found in Northeastern Washington, the antler in the foreground is a double main-beamer with a lot of potential. The second pic is not an entry, just another great find while shed hunting. These trees were roughly 3" and 6" in diameter.

2 pieces


I found this old elk horn hunting blacktail this last season. It was broke into two pieces. It was next to a newer logging road. I think it was thrown out by someone.

Not very many submissions this month.  I'll get the poll up pretty soon for everyone to vote.

What I make with sheds. I called this "The Pull in the Hole Lamp." Not only did the antler-tip pull-chain hang down into the middle of the antlers, but the chain itself hung through a hole in the top antler. The two antlers that appear to be matched are a set.
