Going to give it a go in the next couple of weeks. Is it sad that I come to this site for the first time in about a year to check on shed antler updates? Haha keep the updates coming.

Drove a little over an hour to two new spots Saturday. Closest I could get to either of them was over a mile. 8 separate roads going to the two places and every road was plugged with snow. Talk about a bummer.. 25mph winds or I would have parked at walked down the road to get to them. This shed season is starting like my entire bow season; fail.

Bummer... I have buddies down in Windom area and based on their snapchats and texts, it looks like it's been brutal....

A co-worker found one side to a healthy 130's last Thursday, I have yet to find my first for the year.

I've got at least 2 bucks that have dropped their antlers, but 7 that haven't. Re-stocked the chum pile to keep them from having to go onto the neighbor's field as little as possible. "Breakfast in bed."

Got the green light from the fiancé to use shed antlers as wedding decorations. I've got to strike gold to have enough by the end of May....

Didn't use any sheds in our actual wedding but used one for save the date for Facebook and random ring pictures.
