I love the narley bases, and the no nonsense write up was nice as well. Not that I don't love the stories ,but a straight forward score sheet makes every thing a little easier to digest. Thanks

Kevin said he "doesn't do computers" so I'm guessing he isn't going to be visiting anytime soon.  I keep in touch with him via phone and will be scoring two more big racks of his very soon.  2006 and 2007 bucks.  Haven't seen them but he said they are both "nice".  I'm just going to go ahead and take his word on that!

What a great buck congrats! I notice the cape is cut way up the chest and the skull is capped ... He's not mounting his buck?, did I miss something?  :dunno:

I was just noticing the same thing, at the very least the cape was worth trade money. Another thing, if he is interested in the final score, he should have left the head whole until dry, the cap will curl much more when cut off like that, loosing width. :twocents:
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

Probably about an inch on a deer of that size ... maybe more???
