Nice work. Deer sheds are [beeep] to find up here.

 

[cmiddleton]

i'm going to send brandon some deer sheds when i get enough.
i am also making three curtian rod holders and two lamps out of deer sheds.
most of a elk antler isn't good for calls i hear.
the marrow is to big.
the white one and the one next to it is the same side of the same elk last years and then this years.
smaller bulls would make better antler calls.
the two matches are about 300" bulls and the white side and theone that go's with it is probaly a 320".
here is a picture of the ones i saved from years gone by

05's

06

08 this has my favorites from all years mixed in the pile.

Wow. it looks like you are doing good. I wish I could find more sheds here. I only found 2 last year and one of them was an old one.

 

[cmiddleton]

i have a harder time with deer sheds nowdays the ranch was sold.
i've sent them to call makers and will some more i just have to see what i find this year. elk antlers would be expencive to ship just the deer antlers i have shipped before cost more then just buying the calls out right but its soo cool to have calls from antler you found yourself.

Looking good Casey. How many hours have you spent so far this year to find what you have in the first picture?

about 20 hours /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif but i love hiking i'd be out there antlers or not. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif
i spend a longer amount of time hiking looking for arrowheads before i find a unbroken one. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif
add in the time calling coyotes and elk and i waste 30 hour a week.
if i'd spend that time at work i could retire by now. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smiliesmack.gif
/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused1.gifoh well were is the fun in that /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinning-smiley-006.gif
/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused1.gif its only money

If any of you can help me out with a unit or units in Colorado with good public land mule deer hunting, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks

 

[cmiddleton]
