My 2011 Deer Shed Antlers (54 antlers plus 4 more)

I found 54 antlers total for the year and about 10 matching sets. There are 3 of the 54 antlers not posted in these pics as I handed one over to my buddy Justin Vanek as it was a side to one of his target bucks from this year on his property. I also handed one over to my buddy Scott Schmidt as it was a match to the one he had found earlier. Well, I have taken these pictures and thought that is all I would find unless I happed to stumble across some while turkey hunting this Spring. I was hunting for turkeys this weekend with my freind Clint Gottschalk. I told him that it sure feels "sheddy" around here. I later found 2 matching sets that are pictured at the bottom of this post. I am now up to 58 sheds total and 12 matching sets for 2011!!!


One of my smallest shed finds ever (4" long spike)





While holding these antlers Cooper said, "BIG buck, daddy!"

Cooper is looking to the sky and thanking the "Antler Gods!"

I can't wait to to get in the field with my little buddy searching for some antlers!




Here are the 2 sets I found turkey hunting. The one in the front should be a dandy this year!

That's a lot of sheds! You need to have Cooper hold all your deer for pictures, he makes them look huge!
