Title: More bone
Post by: dmartin on February 01, 2012, 08:43:44 PM: Is it just me or does it seem like in years past we had people finding more bone this time of year :dunno: I may be wrong, just curious what you guys thought. remembered getting on here everyday last year and seeing new cool horns from all you guys. I found my first set last year and jan 8th, they were a year old but i was finding fresh whitetail in the northeast around now. Just board so figured i'd start a new thread lol :IBCOOL:

Anybody remember last year (i think) the shed post near wenatchee...trail cam pics and you stole my sheds, you must of been had to of been tresspassing, blah, blah, blah....
Then i think i remember a post of some elk sheds and pics of the bull in like oak creek a few days before the pics were posted.....good times....

Post by: dmartin on February 02, 2012, 09:07:33 PM: Like i said on the other thread, the people who cant grasp the concept on how to look for horns without disrupting the animals in this mild winter should start there own post section and not read the "shed hunting" section if they dont want to see people posting pictures of horns :twocents: on the other hand i will still be out looking as long as the weather stays 40* in the first week of febuary :tup:
