TreeWalker Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 Well i finally I got to go out for a couple hours and change out my trail camera memory cards and do some quick shed hunting........I found 7.....5 scrubs, a nice young 5 point, anddddd the right side to "my" Big-8........what's unreal is I found this shed not 10-feet where I found his left side last year.....he gained in main beam length and definitely in mass, but lost some in brow tine length.....maybe he'll gain it back next year........last years left side measured 62", this years right side measured 68".....................that put's him the mid 150's as a 4x4 and gives him the potential to push the B&C mark next year..... Here's a set of images showing the buck Last July in velvet, this February before he shed, his 2004 shed and this years shed..........the red arrow of course is indicating that little 2" kicker off of his base..........it's kinda of neat to be able to put the images together with something to associate them all with..........I must have close to 20 trail cam pics of this buck during the course of the last year.

TreeWalker Posted March 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2005 Re: 68\" 4 point shed Thanks guys.......and pumped wasn't the word. What's unreal is i found this year's shed not 10 feet from where i found his shed last year !! Now if I could just find last years and this years matches, I would be the luckiest guy alive.....

TreeWalker Posted March 14, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2005 Re: 68\" 4 point shed Hey Tim.....we've had no snow to speak of, so there was nothing to pack the high grass down......I've got trail cam picks of close to 30 bucks in one area in the past couple of months, yet I have only managed to find 11 sheds there........the high grass is making it near impossible.........there a few sheds I've found only cause I nearly stepped on them. I'm right at 20 for the year, averaging about 1 an hour.... I've got a few other spots to cover in this bucks home area.......if I find nothing then, I'm gonna give up on his match and head to some other areas to find some more sheds..........I've already donated alot of time trying to locate his left side........it's amazing how easy one is to find, and how difficult it can be to find the match........then other times, they are just laying there side by side.........frustrating yet exciting.....
