Found my first on Jan 31, a small 4 point. 2nd on the 3rd of Feb, a solid 4 point, spotted it in the ditch as i was driving by, it must have fallen during the night.

Found 2
I should have just posted in here, but didn't see this thread till after I posted on a thread of my own. Sorry.
I was out Saturday morning and found 2 muley sheds. The bigger one scores 74" and would make him approx 165" deer. The other would be in the mid 140's.

scooped up these 2 about fifty yards apart just after New Years. Not a match though. Right one scores 83 3/8" and the left one goes 71". A lot of snow out there now.

Got out today for a couple hours and managed to find 4, biggest goes 75 inches. Lots of snow makes it tough going though, between knee and waist deep.
The matched set I found a couple of weeks ago.

Most whitetail bucks still packing at least one side south of Calgary. Put on a lot of miles and still haven't found any fresh ones. The drop should start pretty good soon.....

There dropping like crazy where I'm at. Finding most near the bales and feeding areas. I never walk the bedding areas until spring.

Found my weirdest shed to date.
That is a 12 inch ruler in the pic. Im guessing that this is from an Old Mulie past his prime.

That almost looks like a small moose shed. Weird one for sure. heading out for a few hours today so hopefully will find something.

We compared the size of the base to some of the small elk and moose sheds we had and this one was much much smaller than any of the elk or moose sheds.
(on a side note it was also found by a stack of bales where we often get mule deer feeding.)

I agree it is a deer shed because the little stickers close to the base and the little bend also at the base.
