Here are some pictures I took last month of a VERY nice Blacktail buck that is hanging around the house. The pictures were taken right out the back and front doors. Shortly after these pictures were taken he shed his antlers. My wife and I spent 4 hours walking the meadows and hiking the hills looking for his sheds and did not find anything, CRAP!!! Going to have to plan another hike.
We let 2 of our dogs smell some sheds from last year and had them with us hoping they might find something, no go. Will have to read up on it before our next hike.
Let them chew on an old useless shed, then trade it for a small treat, and praise. Make a game of finding it.
@AD1 - Wish it could have worked out that easy. Was thinking about doing a trade, antlers for a bale of alfalfa, but had a communication break down, LOL.
MM I saw this video this morning. It was amazing....right place right time. I thought it fit perfectly here.
