The enjoyment of shed hunting is spreading like wildfire across whitetail country, and the North American Shed Hunters Club and the Iowa Deer Classic are proud to sponsor the NASHC Monster Shed Contest! Sheds from anywhere in the nation can be entered for $8 per shed (or $16 for a matched set). Sheds are officially measured and placed on display to the thousands of Classic attendees throughout the weekend. Sheds must exceed 60" Typical or 70" Non-Typical to be entered into the contest. At no extra charge, each shed will be listed in the next edition of the Shed Antler Records of North American Big Game Record Book which is published by the North American Shed Hunters Club (a $7.50 value).

Deluxe Trophy Plaques will be awarded to the Top Three finds in four categories; Single Shed typical and non-typical and Matched Set typical and non-typical

When you enter the Main Exhibit Hall, simply take your Shed to the North American Shed Hunters Club booth to enter! (look for the Shed Contest banner). Sheds can be entered beginning at 3pm on Friday thru Noon on Sunday.

Visiting the Classic this year is also the North American Shed Hunter's Club National Display featuring some of the largest and most unique shed antlers ever found. The highlight of the National Display is the Current World Record Single Non-Typical Mule Deer Shed from Montana scoring a huge 140 6/8"! Also on display will be the famous, however unscorable Woodpile Shed found a few years ago in Northern Minnesota by Bernie McCaffery, it may be one of the most unique shed antler find ever!
