Unfortunately shed huntr is right! If there is an easy (lazy) way to do it people will! Just like the whole hunting experience in the west has deteriorated since the invent of the four wheeler, which also has created a huge problem with misuse in the shed hunting arena where I shed hunt!! People are too lazy to walk to the sheds so they run over critical winter deer habitat to get to them. Its unfortunate but it only takes a couple of idiots to make us all look bad in everyone else's eyes! Enough of the Soap Box. Happy Horning All!!!
