Reminds me of a 330" set of elk sheds I picked up a couple years ago.  There was a bullet hole just below the g3 on one side.

There was a video on here a few years back of a guy sneeking on a large buck and you see the buck jump up with the arrow stuck in his rack.  I wonder how often this happens?
Cut em!
It's not the shells!  It's the shooter!

  Gamblin guy...  i think about the same year i talked to a guy in the next camp below us that saw a spike with an arrow in its antler.  Good chance it was the same one.  Im sure that shot does not happen to often. :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle   good story :tup:

Sled,  I haven't shared that story with many people until now, too painful..... :'(  All the money I spent on therapy didn't really help.

Dave probably saw that elk, my stand was in the bottom of that big canyon just above the creek.

Pinetar, those of us that have bowhunted for any length of time know that the stars have to align just right to make it happen....or you just have to be lucky which I am not....bowhunt long enough and you'll be amazed at the number of ways there is to screw up a shot on game....oh the pain..... :bash:

i could believe that it could happen like that even out of velvet. i wouldnt have thought that before last weekend but i was at the taxidermist paying my bill and he showed me a couse deer rack with a shuttle T buried up to the back of the blades in the main beam. looked pretty crazy and only a small portion of antler was even chipped off.

That is amazing, I'm going to start using a metal detector out shed hunting!  :chuckle:
When you see the third, thin the herd.
Right now I'm somewhere picking up sheds.
