More of a story than anything. Took the GF to a new spot on sunday for a Vday shed hunt (my idea of course)... :chuckle:
Hiked around for a few hours, didn't see any shed bucks or any bucks for that matter. Seen about 30 does a ways off. Anyways on the way back I send her down a bare ridge and I'll work the bottom of the draw and meet her back on her side. Well I finally make my way up to her and she says "Hey I found a few!" I say sweet don't touch 'em! lol
Took an ATL pic for you guys, and one with her holding them... Funny thing is I snuck up on this buck back in November on thanksgiving break 45 yards from where he drops his horns!!! Got within 40 yards of him for a few minutes and it was definitely the same buck!
BTW I've been sheddin for a few years here and there and I've NEVER found a set laying right next to eachother! Of course her first time out she finds 'em laying like this! We were both pretty stoked! He's a little crab clawed but his mass is GREAT! He was a younger buck so hopefully in a year/2 he'll be a SMOKER if he gets some depth to his forks... wish I had better pics for ya.

Congrats to the GF.. She's a keeper if she goes out hiking.. You could take a picture of me in any condition with a set of horns like that!!!! But I do no what you mean! :chuckle:

She's always down for a hike, she was excited to find 'em thats for sure but appreciates getting outdoors more than anything...
Here's a picture of her on a bear hunt she came with me two summers back... 5 mile hike in to this little lake and she was a champ the entire time!

Its a beautiful place but I've only ever seen a few deer in there.... got much better spots for the high hunt, but its hard to beat this area for bears! Especially that knarly bowl on the back side...
