Great finds, congratulations. What state are those from?

Both very nice sets, congradulations. How far apart were the sides to both sets once you were able to find them? kinda curious.

Nice elk sheds! I have the same question, how far apart were the elk antlers? I've been looking for the other sides of a 6 pt and 7 pt that seems to be kicking my tail. If they are not on top of each other I can't seem to find the other sides.

If found the otherside about 350-400 yards away. They were in a place I thought would be last place it could've been. I was about to give up, but I kept looking. Thanks to my dad for pushing me to give it one more try. I about gave up. I looked all over the slope that I found the first side. Then on my last trip up I went down lower and on a different slope. I only took 12 minutes to find the otherside from the time I left the truck.

The 4-point deer sheds were only about 70 yards apart. Only took me 2 minutes to find the other side.

I learned a lesson. NEVER GIVE UP!

These sheds are from Central Utah
