1. Scout early and locate where bucks and does are wintering. Well traveled trails in the snow where a buck trail intersects are hot spots.  2.  Locate and check winter feeding areas( eg. corn, winter wheat and bean fields).  3. Locate and check winter bedding areas. 4. Concentrate on southern  exposures of bluffs and hillsides. 5. Check ridge tops and edges for trails and bedding areas. Follow field edges and check swamp areas when they are frozen over. 6. Check all trails, even the lesser used ones. 7. Secluded hemlock, pine, and cedar stands are often hotspots. 8. Check fence lines, creek beds , saddles and valleys. 9. Locate and chart trails (by map or gps, ) in the snow early for later shed hunting. 10. Same old story as with deer hunting and scouting, you have to put in the time in the woods, cover your area thoroughly and patience will payoff. That said, if you have limited time follow the field edges and where the deer jump fences or ditches are good places to look. Get your family and friends together and go shed hunting this spring . It's a lot fun and the information you collect along the way, could be the key to locating that trophy buck.    

Note : Tip # 7 is where I have found a lot of my sheds.  -  Tracer

Found this shed while turkey hunting. It was laying 10ft off the main deer trail leading to a food source. April 26, 2008

Found this one in the same marshy area, 10 yards from an intersecting main trail near large log .

After following intersecting trails in this same marshy area, I spotted this beauty.
