Well first, Id like to thank my dad, Best hunting partner, or none of this would have been possible. Ok so now the story.
Im an avid shed hunter and hunter and I love getting out hiking and looking for sheds. In over 3 weekends My dad and I have picked up about 60 antlers overall. I had just dropped my dad off at spot to walk. I went back to camp to grab a quick bite and then headed out into some great looking wilderness. I hiked up the bluff and on to a mesa, a couple hours into the hike i was feeling a little down not finding anything but old old old chalk antlers . As I hiked south I crested a little ridge and classed into the canyon and spotted one nice antler. As I started to head down to it, I saw 4 others real close so I walked up and got them all. To my surprise they were all white matching sets. I then walked back to the west to look into the top of this little canyon or basin.
Once there, I glassed up a huge antler, It looked like a monster , so I scrambled off my pearch and headed in that direction. I figured id make a loop and glass for the other side. It was open country so I got up high and glassed, 5 more antlers from that spot. Walking down a wash to pick up a three pointer I glassed from up high, I stumbled accross the left side of the huge non-tipical that I had found 30 minutes earlier. It was laying behind a bush and I couldn’t see it from my glassing spot. After letting out a hoop and a holler I decided i better head back to camp as night was fast approaching.
On the way down the hill my dad gave me a buzz on the radio and wanted to know where I was and what I had found. I told him I found 2 dinks and he replied “all I found was a boone and crocket set of forked horns haha!” It was starting to rain so I rushed off the hill to get to the truck. The truth is, I wanted to be setting in the truck with the large bucks sheds setting next to me when my dad jumped in. Long story short my dad was so happy for me and wishes he could have been there to help out .
