I look for sheds all spring and summer and stop when snow covers them up in the fall. Just wonderin how many of you guys do the same thing? And if you do how is your sucess in the summer?

Usually no question is a stupid question. But this one is pretty close.

im looking for sheds everytime i set foot in the woods. and i have found all mine during hunting season while looking for tracks and any other type of sign im looking for.
i have never actually found a shed while i was actually looking for sheds. :dunno:
-
why is it a stupid question? Around my neck of the woods im the only one who looks year round that i know of!

Sorry didn't mean to sound like a dick. The whole snow thing threw me for a loop. Kinda hard to look for sheds when they are covered by snow

i know this... Thats why i was askin about summer

Not a dumb question. Normally I have kinda a set "shed season". Even tho im always looking for sheds, i really concentrate my efforts late winter and spring. late spring and summer I wills still go on shed trips but they are into areas I hunt or want to scout, versus earlier when I may be in wintering areas or areas not open to general tags.

I find quite a few throughout the summer working but a lot are chewed on by that time. I go looking on my days off from feb until may pretty regularly.

I am always looking when I enter the woods. I found a 3 point black tail shed today that had not been chewed on at all.

Snow hunting for sheds is a rough hunt, I take snipe .

I shed hunt mostly during the late winter/early spring. Never really done much in the summer, I figure it would be tougher with the heat,brush, the fact some have been found etc.. But I did find a spike elk shed about a month ago while on a fishing trip. In fact I may have to try some summer shed hunting... No doubt theres plently still laying out there. :tup:
