Who actually sells their sheds 😂

[TeacherMan]

So just in a couple seasons of shed hunting I’ve filled up an 8’ three level book case and now I’m working on a large tote.

So my question, who actually can part with their sheds 😂 I feel sentimentally attached to each one, they all have a story lol… Oh and the only reason I ask is my wife’s asking me when we can get rid of some of them 🥺

Sold 17 elk sheds a year and a half ago for little over a $1000.00,now back to stock piling for the next sale.

I just showed my wife this and she said “ oh you’re showing me this so I know how much I’ll get for yours when you die.” I said” haha , no I’ll be buried with them.” She thought that was funny. I don’t sell mine,ever. Each one equates to many hard hikes to find them and lots of great memories in the woods. I love to just sit and look at them or show them to people that like them.

I sell a pile every few years but keep the best sets. Thats a 1200 dollar load there, kinda wish I hadn't sold a couple of those ones now haha. For the first few years I was really into it I could remember the exact location of each shed and all the details around finding them. Drove my wife crazy in an apartment half filled with antlers

I keep the biggest sets and singles from every state that I’ve found antlers in (13) and sell the rest to go into the gun/ammo/fishing stuff fund.

At a certain point you know longer remember each shed.  You’ll remember the unique ones, but the rest run together.   I used to think I’d always remember each one, then there became too many.  I sold about $4K worth one day.  I don’t miss them, in fact I still think I should’ve sold more every time I have to move a pile around.

Now for those starting out in today’s world of shed hunting, this may take a while. Seems like everyone is a shed hunter now.  I started in the mid to late 90’s.

The pressure now days sure takes the fun out of it, guys going out too early and all my favorite spots haven't had a shed in them in years now.  I guess when I retire I'll beat them to it!  Sold a few and keep the best, want to make stuff with them when I get old...er.

I was offered $1200 for my big whitetail one time and a free casted copy of it. I said no, I was 16 I think when I found it. The money was not as important as the memories it held. I was in the woods more then than I get to be now like the rest of you said. I hardly find any now because I can't find time. I find some in the wheat fields on traffic routes still but not a lot in the woods unless I find them while hunting in the fall.

 I’m in the same boat I really don’t want to part but my rafters in shop are full to the point I want to sheet rock but I won’t have anywhere to put them all

I’ve been contemplating it.   Pile is  un wielding, house is starting to tilt.   It might finance something cool.   As a lot, it’s just a pile.   As a single, many represent a memory.

I can only fathom your shed pile 😂

I've left many, never really cared much about sheds.  Growing up the men I learned to hunt from never cared much about them either, that's probably why.  It seems it was never really a thing until recently.  I think I have came home with maybe four over the years, the rest I just left or put up in a tree.  I always thought it was fun to leave them, someone, I suppose, eventually came along and thought they found something real neat when I already passed it up.  If you have ever found an elk or deer shed in a tree, who knows, it might have been me?
