An amazingly small shed find

So in another post of mine I eluded to the need for a smallest shed antler contest if I were ever going to have a chance at winning a shed contest. Little did I know then, that I would take a lunch-time walk in the foot hills behind my work and happen upon this incredibly small shed antler. It's so small that at first I thought it might be a tooth. The pedicle is rather flat so I wasn't sure if it were a shed. I asked 230+ what he thought. He said yep it's a shed. I can't believe it. I've seen a small buck with stubs like it before but I never imagined I'd find a shed like this. It's my fifth ever shed antler found. I'm sure it'll probably be one of the most unique I'll ever find.



I win my small shed contest!

Are you sure there aren't any roe deer around there? :))

You must have some good eyes to see that shed? I have trouble seeing 5 point antlers on live animals yet alone a 1inch laying on the ground.

Nice find.

You are a born shed antler hunting freak. Anybody that can spot a shed that small is bound to put up some numbers. :not-worthy

I would definently say you won your own contest. I have never seen a shed that small ever. Now lets see the other side. Find the match to that one and I will be very impressed. You would have to get it shoulder mounted if you matched it up.

Do I get any credit for the fact that whitetail antlers typically run a little smaller than Mule deer antlers. Here's to hopin it evens things out a bit and makes me a co winner lol

OK, I think, that if A person even finds a tiny one that they are a winner. cowinner sounds great. But Now we need to break the tie. lol lol

now that i take a closer look,i think you guys have a matching set! NOTENOUGHs is deffinatly a right and NORTHERNs is no question a left. they deffinatly come from the same father. and absolutly look as if they have rubbed the same type of vegitation to get the "white ivory"tips! you guys should flip a coin as to who gets the other side. winner MUST get them mounted on a reproduction european skull.
who would of thought :-k
