Questions for a taxidermist
« on: May 25, 2010, 08:30:31 PM »
Hey all,

I have some deer antlers that were off of my Grandpas last deer before he died. I dont have the tag for it, as it was lost whenever...

The question is this, how do I get old antlers mounted, without a tag?

Thanks~

I have had 3 discusions with wardens this year about that very thing. How old is the kill? Obviousely you have photograpks to prove it had a tag at one time. If it is a more rescent kill like in the 2000's call fish and game and see if they can look it up. If it is before then , all and any info you have about your Grandpa, when and where it was killed . And also your info is what a Taxi would need. I would have you write it all out on a piece of paper then have you sign and date it. And then enter it into the books and put that signed paper with it.

Thanks for all the info, those who PM'ed me and Charlie of course. The kill is from 91 I believe.

I have to do something with it eventually....just wasnt quite sure what I would need.
