Okay guys ... how many of you have found sheds off of bucks you eventually took, or shot a buck and then found a shed from a previous year after you killed him? Let's get a good off-season discussion going here to fire this room up a bit!!!

not yet, but hoping to this year....lol....
Can't say that I ever have, but that would be awesome!
My dad did, back in 2001. We found both 4pt sheds on the same summer day, both within 200 yards of eachother. Then later that fall, my dad shot a nice 3.5 year old 8pt. Once he got mounted and he get the head back, we picked up the sheds and compared them to the rack. Just about an exact match. One of his tines was shortened, but what was a nub on the shed antlers, became another tine on the actual deeer.
My bow kill last year I found one shed off the same buck the Spring before.I wish I'd have found the other side too.Would have been nice to see what the 5" kicker off the g-2 looked like the year before I took him.

I haven't yet but it would be cool to do so!
Jody, the non typical that I shot in 2004 had been kind enough to leave me 4 sheds, one set and 2 singles. The one I shot the other day left me a set 2 winters ago, nothing last year, never knew he was alive and well until he wasn't.![]()
PICS, boy, PICS!!!
What about you Jody? As many sheds as you have found, I'm guessing you have been lucky enough to achieve this.....
Shoot...I'm still trying to find a shed!!![]()
I have picked up sheds and seen the same deer the next year, but haven't gotten the sheds from a buck i have gotten yet.
we did just this year, but it was kinda backwards, it was strange. My brother took a nine buck earlier last year. We go shed hunting later in the year when we think their all off round december. We then find a shed that looks a lot like my brothers deer, just smaller. We put it up too his mount, and the shed matched exactly with the mount, only smaller in size. It was wild, so it was kinda backwards but whatever works
Believe it or not, I've managed to find sheds from four of the bucks I've harvested, including my big buck from 1995. I've been really lucky up to this point (and I hope it continues!!!)
I shot this buck in 2002. I have sheds from him from the prior two years. Neither were picked up by me. CLB picked up one while shed hunting with me, and I recognized it immediately and threatened to cry if he didn't give it to me. The other one was picked up by a local area farmer.
