Don't know why it's taken so long for me to post this. Got to start by saying I'm the UNluckiest man alive when it comes to shed hunting. I try a few times each spring and have found one. Pitiful! This picture is exactly as I found my 4th season bird this year. No setting it up or photoshop. Not a special bird or special set of sheds. This is where he died right beside the little sheds. Sure put a smile on this old mug when I saw this........

I guess he shouldn't have walked over there to look at them.
I may have to lay a couple out and see what happens this spring. You may have stumbled on to something.
Sweet, I would rather kill one in a morel patch but nice none the less.

Guess I'm kinda dense. You're going to explain what you mean about the morel patch. If you mean you'd rather shoot a turkey in the woods, I was in the woods, the birds were in the field. I watched the toms leave the timber and go to the middle of that field. Knowing deer like to return to the timber where they left, I set up and waited. Had 8 toms feeding and strutting for a long while until they decided to come back. They came back right where I thought they would. Boom! I could have let him walk all the way into the woods. That would be better, how? :lol:.

Pretty sure he is saying that he is glad that you got a rise by your bird falling next to a set of sheds.
He would prefer walking over to is bird and finding a hidden Morel patch. to each his own.
Very unique ending to a hunt. Congrats!!

Yup, I am dense. When you explain it that way, I think he's right!

I think he just meant (jokingly) instead of walking up to a dead bird by a set of sheds, he would like to see a patch of morel mushrooms.
Congrats.....
