[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 3198505, member: 1409"] I believe this is much of the reason we fail to find many fresh sheds. 1) We're out looking when most bucks haven't yet shed their antlers; 2) When they shed in mid-to-late March (or later) the fast-growing Spring green-up can quickly hide any sheds. So far this year, I've amazed myself with how many [u]old[/u] sheds I've found in 2013 that were shed in 2012 ---- looking in the same places I so diligently soured in March of last year. I believe many of these were shed last year after I stopped looking, while others were just quickly obscured by the fresh plant growth. If you can get out during the month of February, it may very well be the best month to find [i]LAST[/i] year's sheds, many of which are shed in thick cover where they are near impossible to see when shed, but become most visible at the last possible moment before Spring green-up begins.
