Lookin for horns

[az.antlerenthusiast]

Well I took off in a new area in search of early browns. Spent about as much time checking out the area as antler hunting. Saw some slick headed bulls but didn't find where their recent deposits are.

found a couple 2 year old 10 pounders.

 

Shed hunting in the snow makes you wonder how many are burried out of sight.

tales of a few years back. Found this 6x6 pair just before nightfall.

I found an antler very similar to this one last april. It was from the opposite side and about 12 miles away. I

I dont know if that is a genetic mess up or if the bull damaged his manhood but none the less its iteresting to see.

Seen some sheep catching some rays. One of the genleman I met while I was there cued me in to where to look to see them.

 

Came back with 8 sheds and about 90 lbs. Heavy or not I thought it was.

You're the kind of guy I have nightmares about every time I go shed hunting... Has 'he' been here already? Is that why I can't find anything?

 

Unfortunately for me its usually just cuz I'm a crappy shed hunter...

That's quite a bit of bone you found and some nice pics.

The good part is that he did not leave ATV tracks all over!

What about setting up a "clinic" on shed hunting techniques for those of us who lack such skills as you possess? We could get together and have a game cook-off, maybe some live music and malted beverages... Just throwing it out there

 

[AZantlerhead]

Nice haul man! Gee, if I knew you were gonna go out for Moose sheds, I might have made the trip!!

 

[Coues Archer]

Nice sheds.

It goes like this:

 

If you are on one ridge, the antlers are on the other ridge

If there is a cedar tree to either side of you, the antlers are on the other side

If you hunted this same spot last year, you found several chalkies that a blind person could have found

If your legs are tired and your back is hurtin, you still have two more ridges to cross to get to antlers

If you are finding antlers at the bottom of the drainage, your truck is probably parked at the top

If you are hunting with your wife, she found the antler you just walked past

If you are hunting with your kid, he is claiming half of your zone

If you are hunting with your neighbor, it ain't a secret honey hole no more

If you are glassing antlers, they are a minimum of a mile away

If you are looking for antlers while driving over the rim to Payson, might get lucky, but then again you might end up in the bar ditch.

If you spend your time behind some stupid computer, somebody else is out ther finding the dang antlers

 

Nice lookin batch of horns.
