I got it at 7 1/8  I figured it would be bigger and that I was making a measurement error.  then I looked at his pic and it does look short.

Very cool lucking buck Bone.  He's heavy from the tip of his antlers to the tip of his tail.  Very impressive buck!!!

Great buck Bone! I'm sorry it's over though. It was the hilight of my day waiting for my late hunt to start Nov. 30th. Let me know if you want help when it comes time to mount him. I'm just over here in Tieton.

Can't believe I missed your buck Bone.  Great looking buck. 

When you said you are using my technique for caping.  Are you talking about a Short "Y" Incision?  You can get an accurate measurment.  Let me know when you are ready to measure.  Sure saves a lot of sewing.

Just SWEET Bone!!! That nose is more beautiful than Barbara Streisands' shnauz!!!!! How close did you get before you stung him?
PS. I like the jacket, I have the same one, guess that makes me a Bone Wannabe!

Shoot straight out of state!!! :hello: Looking forward to more tales of tails!
