Shed94 Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 If you don't have a lot of competition for sheds in your area,March is a good month to find them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prairiepredator Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 Anytime in the spring should be a good time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toddyboman Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 I have found them as early January.... If you start to early you could take the chance of spooking bucks off your area and then they will shed elsewhere.... I usually start Mid to End of February.

Stone Cold Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 Shed Pictures! I have found that shed hunting is one of my best enjoyments in the outdoors. I found this set Jan 3rd of 2009 and I find that the best time to find sheds here in Central Illinois is around February. Most of my 118 sheds have been found in February and March! Here is the set and some other shed pictures! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stone Cold Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 Most of my finds are in these areas....bedding, stageing, feeding areas or creek crossings and fence lines. Good luck and hope to see some of your posts on here this coming shed season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
