Can't wait till fall, looks like there is going to be some nice deer around. My lab Sage and I put on a lot of miles this spring with some good results. Here is a pic with us and our finds.

Wow that's quite the season! They look fairly bleached though, are they all from this year?

I don't know why they look so bleached in the pic. All but a few small ones are fresh and a couple of the big ones are very dark.

Wow one season! I'll be happy just to see that many bucks in my lifetime...Saw a post somewhere where this fella had his barn full from top to bottom and not a space to plant your feet anywhere...

Unbelievable good work. How many pairs of boots did you wear out?

I have been hunting in south Alabama for 30 yrs and in all those years i have found around 20 sheds.

This is just blowing my mind seeing all those sheds.

That is just absolutely incredible! I'm seeing probably 50 matched sets alone. And a heck of a pile of singles. And the vast majority are from bucks that look like they were more than 1 1/2 years old. I'm trying to do the math in my head about how many older bucks per square mile might be in an area, (3 or 4 at the most?) and how many miles you must have covered to find them all.
Simply incredible!
Did you keep any records of miles walked and time spent? Square miles covered?
WOW!!

Thanks guys, my dog found around a 1/3 of them on her own. Shes only a year and 1/2 old so I'm still working with her. She dug a small one out from under about 6 inches of snow. I walked on average about 10 miles each time out. It was mostly over the same gound though, the deer were really bunched up because of our bad winter.

I don't believe we have that many bucks in East Texas...All I can say is "WOW"

Quickblood · « **Reply #14 on:** April 23, 2010, 10:39:00 AM »

same here - WOW!!! Looks like a lot of symmetry among them; nice gene pool. Good luck chasing them.

Cherokee Scout · « **Reply #17 on:** April 23, 2010, 04:38:00 PM »

Holy Cow Batman!
That is a lot of sheds.

laxbowman, There was around 50 sets and i think around 160 total. I weighed them and there was 150 pounds of antler.
