Thread: Shed Hunting

I've never done any shed hunting, but have stumbled across a few while morel hunting. What do you do with them?

Some people just pile em up, some use them as a form of scouting, others use them as rattling horns, and yet others use them as decorative pieces in their house/cabin?

Personally, I've got a buddy that will hollow the main beam out (if it's wide enough in diameter) and make duck/goose calls out of them, which is a cool piece for us waterfowler's.

Like U said, people use them for many things. I use them as scouting tools. It tells me that a buck is using that part of the woods as his home territory. I then use the different trails leading into and out of the area to set up treestands for next year.

I also have a few smaller ones that eventually I will cut apart and have made into knife handles.

Mostly I use them for decorations around the mancave, or rattlers as well.
