az.antlerenthusiast Report post Posted March 3, 2009 (Azantlerenthusiast) Hey this is Jason. This is a picture of a large shed I found in 06 .Wanted to know if anyone else had any pictures of very large 5 point sheds? I have found many 6 pointers this size but not very many large 5 pointers.

AZantlerhead Report post Posted March 4, 2009 Hey shed brother!!! glad you decided to join up. I remember that shed you showed me, If I remember right I scored it at 350-ish? Huge 5 pointer no doubt. I got one that big, but only because his g-1 is busted clean off Heck of a find man, But what about the 400 head that was layin 60 feet from it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
az.antlerenthusiast Report post Posted March 5, 2009 There was a shed laying near this head but not the 5 point in the last frame. The head that is shown I found about 4 years ago near a rock cove on a mountain face. This would have been a slightly warmer place in the winter and a harder place for a predator to sneak in on. This elk is a 7x7 and is in the 390's range. The shed I found near was I presume from the same bull except that it was an 8 point shed and slightly critter chewed. If not it sure had similar genetics. That and it looked about a year more weathered. The head was about 3 years old when I found it. I filled the cracks in the horn with fine-ground antler dust and elmers glue and some brown dye . I then stained it with an antler stain and clear varnished it for protection. The 8 point shed I doctored up and threw it in a chandelier which will be hanging in a friends house. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
