What Is Shed Hunting and How Can I Get Into It?

Shed hunting is a regular part of our year round deer hunting season. But for those that maybe haven’t quite jumped off the deep end yet, I wanted to provide a short introduction.

Simply enough, shed hunting is the search for antlers. Deer lose their antlers every winter, and antler obsessed hunters hit the woods every spring to find those sheds before squirrels and other critters them up. To get started, all you need is a good pair of boots, a set of binoculars and a few properties to walk. That said, if you’re really dedicated to finding bone – there’s a lot more to it. And that’s what today’s post is all about. Below we’ve got an incredibly comprehensive set of resources devoted to all things shed hunting. We’ve got excerpts from a number of shed hunting articles we’ve posted on Wired To Hunt, links to other great expert resources and a few new tips of my own. If you want to learn everythng there is to know about shed hunting, this is the place to start. So study up and then hit the woods!
