FOUND IT! Walked 4.5 miles, crawled under sticker bushes and found the other side! So stoked. They ended up about 150 yards apart.

I highly doubt those are a set.
Looks a lot like a set to me?

The bases look nothing alike. Regardless what the forks do the bases should look similar. Those don’t.

Two two points to the right were fresh.  All were right sides. Where are all the lefts?
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Every father should remember that one day his children will follow his example instead of his advice.

I could go either way, there's a difference in the frame, and the pedicles best to keep hunting and maybe find two more sheds  :chuckle:

I'm thinking two different sheds, frame looks different along with the color

Not to burst your bubble but kind of exciting there are two more sheds to find near by
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??
“In common with”..... not so much!!

No doubt, gorgeous color for last year's sheds. Gotta love the Westside. Deep and dark

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.
