Shed Antler Hunting Photo Contest ... Nice Prize!

[Founder]

How about a 2021 Shed Hunting Photo Contest!?

Share 2021 shed antler hunting photos for a chance to WIN a nice daypack! This month our friends at Bad Ass Outdoor Gear have got an Eberlestock Bandit to give away to one of you who shares a great 2021 Shed Antler Hunting Photo.

Feel free to post 4 or 5 or so of your best photos from this year, but post them in separate posts, as only the first photo in each post shows up as a thumbnail above. As they lay photos are always fun to see, as well as photos of you showing off your finds. ATL pics are the best though!!
Share a little detail about the pics too!

We'll run the photo contest for a few weeks and then I'll randomly pick a winner. Each photo shared will count as one entry and every 10 reactions that your photo gets will get an extra entry. Just a fun contest. We all love seeing the photos.

Thanks to Bad Ass Outdoor Gear for donating the prizes for the contests and PLEASE everyone, when you're in the market to upgrade your gear, please shop Bad Ass Outdoor Gear and give them a chance to earn your business for good. They've got a large selection of hunting gear for you to look through.

Here's the prize that's up for grabs.

This was the first time my kids have ever found an elk antler. My daughter found the first one and I told them the other one had to be close. My son turned around and found it 20 yards away for a matching set. It was fun to witness!

My son Fisher glassed up 1 side, we spent hours looking for the other side. Finally found it 200 yards away. I don't know who was more excited, him or me!

I found one like that this year. Gets you going when you see a burr and close to an 11 inch browtine sticking out of the snow.

I pulled it out and I had a 74 4/8 inch four point in my hand. Best four point ever. Also the best browtine I have ever found.

I also found my forth best four point, right at 70 (not counting the 6 inch drop) It has a 14 2/8 inch G2, best G2 ever.

Contest over. That last pic can’t be beat. Well done Jake!

 

[Buckbrush]

Agreed! Jake and his daughter clear winners.

 

[boomer]

Had some family fun on May 1st. This was the best one we found and my daughter was pretty excited to have found it. I guess she gets bragging rights until next time.

Also picked up a unique forkie with a 10" base. Sure wish I knew what the other side looked like. Good times.

 

[Lukegarrett2002]

Not sure if it’s too late but this is one of my prettiest ATLs

 

[BrowningRage]

Some pretty good photos in here, lots of smiling faces. ATLs with background scenery are always the best shed photos IMO. We get very few anymore because of competition.

I think the best photos include:

Noluck's #3 pic
pushin30's #2 pic
Founder's side-by-side
Lukegarrett2002's moose

 

[scandalousbob]

Here are a few I found this year. The deer shed was laying right on the trail.

WINNER!
WINNER!
WINNER!

It was time to bring this contest to an end!

I did something a little different on this contest and instead of basing the winner on what I thought was the best photo, it's a random drawing with those who have 10, 20, etc. likes an extra entry for every 10.

The winner of the Eberlestock Bandit is: hornkiller

Thanks to everyone who shared photos, they're not to look at!!
