## What is Shed Happens?

Scan your antler. Keep a 3D replica forever. Get it BFA Certified by a real person, not AI.

SCAN IT. KEEP IT FOREVER.
Walk around your antler with your phone — a quick 1–2 minute scan — and it shows up in your vault right away. Every scan gets a digital 3D replica you keep for good: spin it, toggle the measurement paths, show it off.

GET IT BFA CERTIFIED.
BFA stands for Big Freaking Antler. Every BFA Certified score is measured by a real person, not AI — a scorer with 4,000+ antlers measured. You get the score and the full measurement breakdown on a printable scorecard. Your first certified score is free.

BFA counts every inch. No deductions for asymmetry. No penalties for character. If it grew, it counts.

IN A HURRY? SNAP IT.
Point your phone at an antler and get an instant AI estimate while you're still standing over it. No tape, no math. It's an estimate, not a certified score — get it certified when it matters.

SHOW IT OFF. LIFE SIZE.
Text a link. They spin your antler in 3D and stand it up full size in AR on their own phone. No app needed.

MEET STEVE. HE ALREADY DID THE HOMEWORK.
Ask him anything about your hunt. Steve reads the state harvest data, the herd trends, and your own pins, then tells you what it means in plain English. Every find you log makes him sharper about your country.

YOUR HANDS ARE FULL. YOUR PHONE ISN'T.
Hit the mic and call out your measurements — Steve scores it live while you talk. Every score makes a printable BFA scorecard. Permanent. Yours.

DROP A PIN WITHOUT TAKING YOUR GLOVES OFF.
Snap a photo and say what you're looking at — "mule deer buck, four by four, maybe a 165." The app files the species, the pin type, the points, your notes, and the GPS while you're still watching him. No menus. No typing. Works with no service.

Every shed, rub, bed, track, and sighting builds a map of your country that gets smarter every season.

YOUR SPOTS STAY YOUR SPOTS.
No public feed. No pin sharing. Ever. Your GPS is encrypted before it syncs, and stripped from your photos before they leave the app. Your data is yours — always.

THIS IS BIGGER THAN AN APP.
I'm Chuck McFarland. The mountains and hunting saved my life, and I built Shed Happens to return the favor. Wyoming mule deer are down 50% and nobody has real ground-truth data on what's happening out there. You do.
