if your looking near spokane not all the bucks have lost them yet,they are really late this year.I did find a nice 4 point match set two days ago and they were fresh.right before i found them I jumped a mature buck.good luck!

I know better than to walk down the road with a shed in hand. :chuckle: I've had a real slow year, but found a few.

Ive never seen a whitey in my life with antlers..not saying they couldnt..but I see deer daily where I live and have for the last 15+ years..I would venture to say 99.9% of whitetails are bare..the big bucks right now have 2" velvet nubs right now around here

It was a rough year over where I go.  Very few early on but now that the snow and ice is about gone my buddy has picked up a wheel barrow full in my "secret" spot that I couldn't get to before.  The bastage picked up the sheds from the big boy that I have been after.   :bash:  It seems that the critters had gotten to almost every shed that he found.  Hungry little turds!

Nope.  I'll have to dig through his pile the next time that I am over and take a good close look at them.  We don't use trail cams. That particular area, because it is a b- to get into, we stay out of it as much as possible except to find sheds and only when we are hunting.

Good looking set Lybeck. Personally I'd rather find those than bag a turkey.

The latest I ever saw one holding was April 15th. He was a 2 1/2 year old 4x4... in the Cheney unit.

Right now I'm somewhere picking up sheds.
