One I can't get!

[Fetch em up]

Here's a pic of a nice shed through my spotting scope on property I can't go on    Oh well, I guess you can't get em all!

Can't you get permission?  Ouch!

Nope, I stopped and asked- actually I wanted to bring my 6 year old son up to get it, but the guy said NO!  He wasn't the nicest guy about it either, and then wanted to know where it is

You should have just snuck over there and got it.

Yeah, bad idea. If you ask and get a "no" I would not be doing any sneaking. Probably end up with a load of birdshot in your butt.

[blacktail luv]

He should have done the sneaking first.  Get in and get out.

Not something to kid about... which I seriously hope you are.

The reason I asked permission and didn't sneak in is (not only that it's illegal and wrong), but I think way too many shed hunters do it and ruin it for everyone.  When I started looking for sheds in the early 1990's, I was given permission pretty much anywhere I asked.  Now I get denied all the time because they are overrun with trespassers as it is.  It's almost to the point where it's not fun anymore- ok it's still a blast, but it's not like it used to be!!  Besides, I think an antler I legally pick up after hard work is 1000 times cooler than one someone had to sneak in and get.

It will never cease to amaze me what people will post on the internet.

He has to be joking. If not he is gonna get flamed and this is going to become a back and forth you know what match.

Thanks- it's good to see I'm not alone.  In all honesty, if the guy wouldn't have been a jerk about it, I would have told him right where it was!  Actually, I would have gone and got it and gave it to him, just for the thrill of picking it up and I could have took some better pics of it.  It was last years antler anyway, if he didn't find it then he won't find it this year most likely.  The rodents will be happy.
