With the low numbers from the EHD and looking for some new turkey grounds that's my main focus
I had a couple bucks on camera chasing a doe (it appeared to be a doe) around a creek this evening.
Walked 2.25 miles. Spotted this one along the creek. Supposed to get 1.5-2" of rain the next couple days. This is why I wanted to hunt this property pretty hard.
Walked less than half mile from this one. Continuing along the creek travel corridors. I was pretty proud to find the next one. It was roughly 30-40yds across the creek. Saw a glint of sun. Walked a few steps. Looked again. Saw nothing. Something told me to go back and look from the first angle. Glad I did. Glassed it and saw what I was fairly certain were tines. Thought it might be a pair or else a really big shed. Got over there to find a matched set. That got me jacked up to walk out the rest of it and the next section.
Not sure how I missed this other than my excitement to find the set. I picked the set and crossed the creek. Finished the south side of creek. Crossed to search north side of the creek and realized this is a scrape where he dropped. Or at least right next to one.
Ended up covering 3.59 miles and glassed a ton of open fields. Came up empty in the open fields and majority of trails I walked. I'm not complaining. This was a great haul for me. Any day you find a matched set is a great day in my eyes.

Saskatchewan is one of my favorite places on Earth but there will have to be a lot of changes in Canada before I ever go back to that communist country. They are taking their firearms away from them. It's a mess up there
I finally got on the board
Beautiful day today

Didn't you have a pic of one in real bad shape? Looked like he was hit by a car or something.
Not same area as where that was. But yes I did. Both of these had bullet holes in them. I dont hunt this area just have permission to shed hunt.
