My son Matt went back out today and found a monster shed!We are going to go back out this afternoon and try to find the mate.I will send a pic of it to to Tony and see if I can get him to post it on this thread since I'm to stupid to figure it out.Hopefully we'll be able to find the match today and get them both sent!

We went out and found the other side today,it was around 300 yd's from were Matt found the first one,it was to dark to get good photo's of them tonight so I will get a few tommarrow and send them in to Tony.We rough scored the right side at 85 1/2" and we still need to score the left side,I will send it with the pic's tomarrow.
WOW, what a rush!!!

Sound like great sheds. I'm assuming they are non-typical right?And when you get the left side scored let us know.
Great Job!!!!

I just thought Id let yall know that im the proud son of buckhunter and owner of the first giant shed found. From the looks of it the one that I found may be a lil bit bigger then the other but it may have a few more deductions of it but were guessing its somewhere between 160 and 175. What my old man didnt mension was one of the other sheds he found after finding the match to mine. Its a 2 1/2 year old buck with some really long main beams. And I went out today and found the match to it. Were not doin to bad this year and its the first time weve ever found matching sets. Well have pics of both soon.

Good luck guys

Awesome job finding those sheds. I look forward to seeing a picture. I know the rush you get from picking up a big shed and the even greater one from finding the match. WAY TO GO!!

Here you go guys. This is one of the photos. The deer scored roughly 172 and 1/4, before deductions. The right antler scored 85 3/4 with 24 1/2 inch main beams. The right side scored 86 1/2 with 24 1/2 inch beams as well. It had 5 1/2 bases. Absolutely massive. The best part about it is for one hes still alive and two we really had no idea he was there. I just happened to stumble accross the shed. And the next day my dad found the other side not 300 yards away. We also found a 130 class 8 point set which we will post later. Have found a total of 8 so far and we'll send a pic of all of those later as well. Sorry about the wait on the photos. I think i may put in a lil time huntin this deer next year.

Good luck guys.
Numba 1 and buckhunter.

Youngbuck,
He do's have some garbage on the rack so I'm not sure yet if he would be scored as a typ or nontyp,I'm trying to find out that info so we can try to give a net score.
It really do's not matter what it score's but it is neat to know.This deer will be bigger next year and it will give me a reason to spend time with my son scouting and setting stand's this coming late summer!
