Was camped out in eastern Oregon last week with my brother doing a little bear hunting and turkey hunting. Wasn't really looking for antlers, but managed to find three elk sheds and a buck shed.

So I got this picture in a text from my wife while at work. It's the shed off a buck I killed two years ago (compound) and I always new a guy a mile away from where we live had it. Well we just got possession of our new place across from this guy I speak of, and he tosses it in the stroller as my wife was going for a walk and says 'here's a house warming gift for you' Now that's my kind of neighbour!! (For those who are curious I figured him as an awesome 3 1/2 yr old here and he put on about 30" bringing him into the 205 gross range as a 4 1/2. A guy really has to wonder what he would have done in that magical 5th year.)

Went out today for a hike and got onto a few, 10 for the day, though only a few made the trip home!  Best day shed hunting ever and a matched set to start the day.  Too bad they are all fairly old and chalky, but I was still stoked!  

Dink of the day.
 

Non-typical matched set, SWEET!
 

Loaded up.
 

Shoes got full of dirt for my efforts!

Ken,

I feel sorry for the deer that has to carry that set!
Relax,

You'll live longer!

A few more from my last trip.  2 matched sets!

A clean 3x4.
 

Pretty sure this is the same deer as the other big set I found.
 

Both sets.
 

Got some mass!
 

Who's your daddy?
 

Haul for the day.
 

Now to find some that are still on the deer!
