Several sheds from Saturday

Recommended Posts

I took my son Isaac out with me on Saturday to round up a bunch of sheds I'd glassed up last November while scouting for a rifle elk hunt. I found a total of 10 and packed out 9. Here's some ATL shots for you guys.

Got down to the next antler and soon after Isaac spots one in the distance....

Just goes to show you, there seems to always be some old ones out there to be found. Unless of course you're in Josh's area then not sure about that!

Hahahahahahahahaha!!!! That's funny but definitely not the case as each year I go back and find whites that I missed before dangit!

 

Glad you all like the pics :)

Grong, those are awesome sheds!

 

That looks like an Outdoorsman's Pack system? but its hard to tell....

If so, how do you like it? I recently got one and have not had a chance to break it in yet.

 

Thanks, 2FC

I have had a lot of packs but the Outdoorsman's Pack is the best one I've ever had, bar none!! With all the straps runnin all over that thing you can find a way to put a half dozen or more sheds on your back pretty easy and it'll still be comfortable to wear. In fact once I got to the truck I put the 3 strapped together in the back and then took the pack off my back and set it on the tail gait. It was funny cause I tried moving the pack around with all the sheds strapped to it still and it was one heavy SOB. But on my back it felt like nothing. If any of you are in the market for a pack I'd advise you to go to the Outdoorsman's with all the stuff you typically carry around in your pack and put it in that thing. I typically carry about 2 liters of water, Swarovski spotter, tripod, camera, video camera, hand held radio, extra batteries, knife/multi-tool etc... I would guess that my typical pack weight would be around 30lbs somewhere. More in the winter of course when I'm packing around jackets n stuff to stay warm. At those times your pack can get to 40+lbs pretty easy. Anyway, all I can say is that pack is amazing!

That antler looks like it might outweigh Isaac. Awesome picture and thanks for sharing. You certainly have what it takes to finding these sheds. :)
