It was one of those days!
#600345 - 03/16/08 08:39 PM

A good one to say the least. Only on 2 other occasions have I left the woods with 2 sheds in one day. After plans for a shed hunt in some prime woods with Walleyebuster fell through (ha hum !)today, I decided to head out again to my stompin grounds and was rewarded greatly with one small and one medium sized antler. Again I had to snowshoe out cause the drifts are still up to 4' deep in spots but I found each of these on completely bare ground and also in an area which is overun by red squirrels that I swear can chew an antler down to dust in a day. Luckily I beat them all to it! I just realized again how badly I hate, hate red squirrels. Anyway the pics are as how I found them. In one pic hopefully you can see there is still a little blood on it. Anyway, I'm one happy guy today! Also got to see a nice tom while searching.

Congrats on the nice finds! That 5 point looks sweet laying on the pine needles.
