Found my first one tonight behind my dads house. Wish I could have found it soon

I've tried hoofing some public ground looking for sheds this winter/spring. So far I've covered (according to my phone) about 9 miles across a couple of hikes. I have found 0 sheds. Dead does, galore. Tons of sign. Lots of buck sign. Seeing a lot of deer. No sheds.

Not uncommon to hear about human remains found by hunters. There’s a case in the news in the Philly area about a 14 year old girl that was raped, murdered and her body stored in cat litter for months by her adoptive mother and her boyfriend. They then cut up the body and dumped it in the woods. Hunters found the remains.

Watching local news last night and some human skeletal remains were found in some woods somewhere around Cincy by.....................you guessed it! A man out looking for deer sheds or antlers the reporter said. It’s always been my biggest fear to find something like that
Not gonna lie, when I found an old student ID in the brush, part of me wondered if I was going to find more than I wanted. Through the wonders of Facebook, I confirmed the kid is alive and well.
Roughly between my 10th and 11th mile of hoofing public ground looking for antlers, I finally found one. South facing bank, thick cover, spotted it on a parallel trail to the one I was walking. It's old, not big, and chewed up, and I do not care.
Any find is a good find. Nice one Creamer!

Went out to Ravenna Arsenal for some hhhmm work.............and lookie what I just so happened to stumble upon. Probably atleast 3 years old but hell of an old buck. The mass he has is pretty cool too.
Here are the 2 treks I took, with the pin being where I found him. About 3.5 miles total. I followed some Dan Infalt advice about swamps and he was about 25yds from a very thick swamp area to the west.

8 more today!
And no, the 2 bigger ones are not a matched set. One of them is from last year.

Just blows me away the difference between our two states as it comes to deer hunting or shed hunting.
Congratulations on yet another great day! What you’ve found in just 3 days is mind blowing.
