        I found my first one of this season, and it is a big one! Post the antlers you find this year.

            Nice and fresh, no rodents been snaking on it, do you have plans for it yet.

              Mark,

              I have a dream to mount elk antlers on a post so they ca hold bows across their tines and hang quivers on them. But its just a dream right now. If get to making it this summer I’ll certainly put up photos here.

                Nice find, Preston! The country where our bulls tend to hang in the winter is still under a fair bit of snow, so I haven’t been able to get out looking much yet. But I was chukar hunting in western ID a couple weekends ago, and found these:

                And here’s a nice elk shed I found a few seasons ago that I just couldn’t resist mounting over our porch:

                And my best shed find from last Fall – a matching pair of moose paddles, laying on the ground right next to each other (that’s a 64″ bow for scale). Still not sure what I’m going to do with these, but I was sure stoked to come across them!

                  Mushroom Bill would put his eye out on that porch ornament..

                  I probably wouldn’t even notice it.:roll:

                      Just one of the many “decorations” I have around the place to keep the riff raff out.

                          Very cool thread! I love how you have that elk antler displayed, Smithhammer.

                            Nice finds. I’m so overdue to find a shed or arrowhead I may have to take some vacation time this spring and go hunting for them. I could sleep in too.
