I'm not 'Wikipedia savvy' and have no clue how to edit and don't care to take away your thunder regarding your definition of 'shed hunting', but being an avid shed hunter you are waaaaay off on many of your terms and had wished you came over to shedantlers.org and chatted on the forum a bit with us before you went off and came up with a definition we all laugh at over there. Including the guys from Idaho!! haha

Here's the scoop, "some" not "all" of us shed hunt for profit.

Clinting is a term possibly so outdated nobody has heard of it before in my circles. I've been "shedding" for 25 years. I've shed hunted in Ohio, KS, PA, NY, CO, MD, WV, NC and talk to guys in Idaho, MT, WY, BC, ALB, MAN, UT and all places surrounding ID and they never use that term.

YOur use of the term "prongs" is wrong and all circles of deer nuts like myself call them 'tines'

Clints are antlers......period.

We have a great love of shed antler hunting and hope maybe you can relinquish this one definition to somebody who knows something about it, spends about 1000 hours a year doing it and somebody who would do the definition justice. I'm not making a personal attack, you just have no clue what you are talking about in this particular realm. Come on over to shedantlers.org, login and chat on the forum with us and we'll be glad to help you with your quest of coming up with an accurate definition. We also have cool field photos we'd love to give you as most of us take pics of them before we pic them up.

Moved article to section "Shed antler hunting" of Antlers

edit

The article appears to have gone stagnant as an unmarked stub with many issues, not least those pointed out above and being an orphan. The page, encountered in browsing Category Ungulates left me wondering "Searching for a shed to keep animals in?" It is moved to a section of the smalll article Antlers.
