finally got some moose antlers
« on: June 02, 2009, 07:55:47 AM »
a matched set even!  also found one OLD mule deer antler that would have been a seven point side, but was chewed and weathered really bad- it's still in the woods.

while it's a great pic and happy to see you didn't have to lug them out on your back, we're gonna need some better pics of the moose bones.

some of us are junkies.  :)

congrats.

pretty much- I wish i could say I was off beating the brush, but i was just on the horse and happened to be in the front.  My wife could have just as easily got them if she was up front.... goes to show- riding the horse with ADD somtimes pays off!!

It probably does.  How are you doing?  I had a friend that likely drew a watershed tag- can you pm me of email me?  I'd like to know the restrictions they place on those tags.  Thanks- Bart
