Nice buck.

I bet Michelle and Bucklucky go crazy seeing all these big bucks (and bulls) that have the capes cut.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.

I can tell the neck is huge.  Why didn't you sell that cape to a taxidermy or trade for a wood plaque to mount the antlers?

This was my point.  I see all the posts from Michelle and other taxidermists stating that they want capes and there are multiple posts of really nice bucks and bulls with the capes cut.  I realize not everyone wants a head hanging in their house but the taxi's have a use for another part of the animals that we harvest and it just seems like it would be cool to get as many to them as we can since they are such a big part of the "community" here.
