The world's largest organized shed hunt is returning for 2016. Whitetail Properties will again call on outdoorsmen and women throughout the country to join its #ShedRally on March 12.

“Connecting people with the #ShedRally hashtag allows America to shed hunt together, no matter where you live,” said Dan Perez, Whitetail Properties CEO. “Not only are we showing fellow hunters our good times on our land, we’re showing the world how inviting and cool it is to live the outdoor lifestyle.”

2016 will mark the third year of #ShedRally, which has become an annual social media campaign. Participants are asked to upload videos and photos of their own shed success stories to Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

“It’s not about finding the biggest antler or even finding antlers at all,” added Perez. “#ShedRally is an excuse to get outside, breathe fresh air and spend time with family and friends.”

This year, Whitetail Properties will judge all uploaded photos that use the #ShedRally hashtag and award prizes to the most original and creative users. More information can be found in the video embedded above.

Michigan Mayor Looks Down on Guns and Dogs

“If you’ve got a gun, you should be ashamed of yourself,” said Grand Rapids Mayor David LaGrand. NRA-ILA also noted that in his response to a police K-9 chasing down a suspect, LaGrand said: “It is time that we ask, ‘What are dogs good for?’ Like, if you need a dog to find someone in the woods, get a hound dog. If you need to chase somebody in a backyard, why couldn’t you do that with a drone? If my dog did what I saw in that video, I’d put my dog down.”

Coyote Tactics: Stay Flexible

The successful hunters I know do not get hung up on one tactic. They constantly float between strategies in an ever-changing hunting environment. Quite simply, they’re flexible. I take that improvising nature to heart even for coyotes, particularly when they shun my calls for whatever reason. When that occurs, I continue the hunt, but modify my strategy to fit the scenario.
