LAST EDITED ON Nov-19-08 AT 06:48AM (MST)[p]This is my first post on the shed forum here on the MM site. Here are some of the sheds I found in 2005 during my archery and rifle hunts on a piece of public land here in SD. They are pretty typical for what we find every year. Unfortunatly, many of these deer migrate from the private fields into this area during late winter so we don't have a chance to hunt them.
I have shown the shed that my son is holding to several people and some say he is a whitetail and some say he is mulie. There are very few whitetails in this area but the ones we do see typically are very large.
I measured him as a whitetail and giving him some consevative estimates of 3" and 5" for the two broken tines, a similar opposite side, and a conservative inside spread of 17", he would have been pushing 190" - 200" class buck.
What are your opinions - whitetail or mule deer?
