That's a beauty bubbly.

yeah Chris I'll have a hard time cutting it up, some ol' buck worked hard to stay alive long enough to grow that, I'll cut my elk rack first

That a nice one bub. If ya wanna save it I can send you a whitetail rack to cut up, just consider it a bribe for a couple more of your knapped hunting points. I got a few laying around, let me know if your game.

Bub, will this one work for you for starters? It's good and solid and has some bumpy character at the base. I found the right shed antler from this deer three years in a row, never could find the left side antler.  Each year the antler got just a small bit bigger but always had the exact same shape to it.
