Nope, I stopped and asked- actually I wanted to bring my 6 year old son up to get it, but the guy said NO!  He wasn't the nicest guy about it either, and then wanted to know where it is  :chuckle:

Yeah, bad idea. If you ask and get a "no" I would not be doing any sneaking. Probably end up with a load of birdshot in your butt.

He should have done the sneaking first.  Get in and get out.

The reason I asked permission and didn't sneak in is (not only that it's illegal and wrong), but I think way too many shed hunters do it and ruin it for everyone.  When I started looking for sheds in the early 1990's, I was given permission pretty much anywhere I asked.  Now I get denied all the time because they are overrun with trespassers as it is.  It's almost to the point where it's not fun anymore- ok it's still a blast, but it's not like it used to be!!  Besides, I think an antler I legally pick up after hard work is 1000 times cooler than one someone had to sneak in and get.   :twocents:

" 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

Thanks- it's good to see I'm not alone.  In all honesty, if the guy wouldn't have been a jerk about it, I would have told him right where it was!  Actually, I would have gone and got it and gave it to him, just for the thrill of picking it up and I could have took some better pics of it.  It was last years antler anyway, if he didn't find it then he won't find it this year most likely.  The rodents will be happy.   :bash:
