Saw bucks at Zephyr Sunday still in full antlers, but there could have been some in the group that had lost both

I have terrible luck finding sheds... I dont really work at it particularly hard, but I spend a *lot* of time outside, and I have found only maybe 5 antlers in 30+ years...
Any tips?

Sweet! We actually found our 1st for the season too. Unfortunately, it was in a brand new tire.

Extended droughts in our area has made shed hunting much easier this year for us. We've found something over thirty sheds with only a few being new sheds and most of those have come the last two weekends. Due to excessive pressure from predators many of our deer come out of the cover into open coastal fields to bed at night and that is where we find most sheds.

I've been looking hard and long for sheds on my place. I know the deer are around, have plenty of great game cam pics.
Any tips on where to look. ie. low lying places, heavily wooded, small openings etc...
I think I'm ready to start training my dog to find them for me. Probably easier.

Bedding areas, food sources and any fences they jump.
Patience is the key

Bedding areas, food sources and any fences they jump, and any trails between any of these areas.
