Have not ever been shed hunting, but now that I have a place that nobody else hunts, I am going this year just to see what I can find, but as well, will give me a chance to look over the property for next year stand locations.

The way some make it sound meat hunters only go to the woods to fill the frezzer then stay home when its full lol.Non trophy hunters would be a better discription of of folks who are not consumed by antler size.Id saythey spend as much time in the woods as any other hunter Imo lol

Im not a trophy hunter, I am a meat hunter, usually try to take 3 deer per season, but wont shoot the baby either, have passed on a few because there was a little with her.
But yes, trophy rack would be nice, need a match to the 9 point i have mounted.
Maybe now since moved to Shelbyville and have a place to hunt that only 2 others have been hunting I have a better chance

I hunt for meat and I hunt for the Big Boys.Depends on where and when I'm hunting.I also hunt for Sheds. Shed season is the only time I scout my sanctuaries for next season.It is also when I'm scouting for turkey season.

i would have to disagree. if horns holds hold no value to the hunter, why would he stomp around in a cold woods to pick them up.

Maybe to see what he missed seeing, or to plan for next season hunt locations
