Here it is for when they do start to drop.

Everything around me is still packing.

Very early for elk, likely never grew one, or broke off.

Seen one was well the week before Christmas. Figured he'd broke it off but it was right at his pedestal

I've never found a fresh elk shed before March but I've found fresh deer as early as December 15 and seen deer with both sides in the same area well into spring. I think with the right combination of stress and other factors antlers can shed any time after the rut

Post by: Buckhunter24 on January 02, 2023, 10:48:42 AM
Its an interesting topic I don't want to thread jack but I'm pretty sure stress nutrients and losing daylight are the 3 biggest factors. I'm sure genetics are in the mix too. I think once their done fighting over women they don't really need them until the next rut
Title: Re: 2023 sheds….let’s see em.
Post by: LDennis24 on January 02, 2023, 10:55:29 AM
Testosterone drop is what makes the antlers shed. The animal carries the testosterone levels from the rut until the spring with most species and then the levels drop causing the antler base to deteriorate. A sick or wounded animal would probably do that much sooner so Karl could have easily seen a bull with a shed antler. Keep an eye out for it!

Title: Re: 2023 sheds….let’s see em.
Post by: Alan K on January 15, 2023, 08:31:41 PM
I've found several spike elk sheds, one spike blacktail shed, and a spike mule deer shed.  The spike blacktail shed was in the road in a walk in area, only about a 3" shed, fits in the palm of the hand.  Lucky find! Spike sheds are a good judge of how sheddy your eyes are!

I found a bleached out muley spike a few years ago. My buddy found a spike elk. Both in the fall while out hunting.

I have a spike from up by Newport I found one year when I was about 17. It's two inches long and about an inch across. I was climbing a ridge that was pretty steep but I figured I would get a good view from a granite rock the size of a van I could see up above me. I was climbing and found a hillside trail bench with a nice rock to sit on and put my head down between my legs for a second and there it was! Lol! The area was known for heavy antlered bucks. It's a neat little button point.

I actually had plans to shed hunt locally around my place Sunday, I spotted my big 200” WT Saturday night with a bald head bedded down. I really want to get in and find his head gear. Then it started snowing Saturday night 😜 So we hopped in the truck Sunday morning and went about 3 hrs south and hit the steep breaks of the Snake. I was shed hunting in a t shirt and 46 degree sunshine.

I had the third in the world for a decade or two at 93 and change, so that would be interesting.  I guess that was typical so you could be talking NT.

Definitely NT. My biggest mule deer typical is 86” and change. Biggest non typical would be in the 230” range if both sides matched equal in size with a 27” spread.

Only one today despite being in more deer sign than I’ve seen in a long time and seeing 25+ deer. I’m a terrible horn hunter tho…I always lose focus on horns and start looking for future hunting spots.

Hmm, it does make me wonder, I was just thinking the pedicels could be different and still be the same deer. But they are a bit too different in size, haven't seen a difference that big in past sets.  I looked all over heck so if they aren't matched up, someone might have the other sides.  I'll have to look more.  I don't see any differences with the frame though??

Look at the color of both antlers and the little nubs by the base. They don’t look anything alike. Forget about size. Why would a deer rub his right antler a lot more than his left? Look at the 2 point set a couple posts above for comparison.

I know these posts are older but I came across this pic recently. If they were side by side I'd never guess it was a set. A buck a buddy shot a few years ago was like this too. Completely different shape, and even the little bumps around the bases were different.

I was referring to the dead head above. I know your sheds are fresh and the pedicles may or may not be similar but the horns will look similar if it’s a set. I think you’re missing my point. The coloring on a set will be similar because they have been sitting on the same deer head running on the same stuff all year. The two horns you found are not similar in color.

I've scooped a great volume of deer sheds this year. My labrador has brought me most of them, she's a stud!

My best this year though, was this 4 point, and I found it, not my dog  :chuckle: That first pic is it strapped to my EXO 3200 pack, total unit of an antler.

I found one side, and my friend found the other side. He had them mounted on a skull for me and gifted me his side for my birthday. Best gift I've ever received.

Hard to know the true spread of this buck, but we scored it roughly 163"

That's a good girl you have there phildo. One mine got a nose for birds his priorities were set. Any tips on making antlers more rewarding?

I made a chronic effort to play with her with antlers while she was getting started, and I always brought her out with me when I'd go shed hunting.

I used antler scent on antlers, and would make her sit and stay and I'd hide antlers around the house and say "find the shed!" and make her look through the whole house and all the smells inside the house to find the sheds and she began to bring them to me one by one. I also have sheds all over my house, and she will never grab them off a table or something unless I tell her to go get one. She knows they're not for her, unless I tell her it is. She absolutely LOVES smelling the bases/pedicel of the antlers, and I let her dig into it with her nose as much as she wants. 

Whenever we go out on a shed mission, I bring a shed with me and when we get out of the truck, I show her the shed and say "this is what we're after!" and I'll let her see me go hide it, and then tell her to go get it. Then she knows what we're doing and knows we're not just out for a jolly ol' stroll in the woods.

Anytime I glass a shed, or see a shed before she gets to it, I lead her near it and make sure I'm giving her the "find the shed!" command and really gas her up and when she finally finds it, I give her a piece of jerky and really amp her up and get her excited and jumpy about it. I will never just pick up a shed with my hands anymore, I make her do it for each one I see.

Contrary to what a lot of people say, I will literally give her the tiny forky sheds as a treat and let her eat it at the end of the day so she not only wants to bring them to me for me, but so she can have a piece of the pie. She has not only developed a nose for the antlers, but the sight. I've seen her see the shed before she smells it and she gets jacked and runs to go get it. She will dig antlers up through snow and matted grass, so when she stops and digs, I let her discover what she was smelling.

Now she brings me sheds out of nowhere and I'll have absolutely zero clue where she got them from  :tup: :tup:

Got a few good ones! It does not like to let me post pictures on this app, I’ve been trying for the last few months but you can see them on my YouTube channel @Colby Otto outdoors
Found my family’s record bull in April being a nice 6x6 then found several 5 points. I’ll keep trying to post pics but if it does not work and your still curious to see them check out my YouTube.

@Colby Otto take a screen shot of your pic and you should be able to post that. You can only post two of those at a time.

That's crazy! Better keep looking, the other side might be in the road too, then you could have a matched set with tread marks and all  :chuckle:

They were in real thick timber, I’m guessing 2 years old. Still in great shape. Squirrels didn’t mess them up too bad.
