Just did.  Forty three and a half inches, not the fifty everyone wants, but it does weigh nine pounds.

We were up at the north side of Mt. St. Helens this weekend and all of the bulls still had their antlers.

Not a bad idea!  I have been beat to an antler before- you never know who else is out there in the woods with you.  Whoever touches it first gets it, so I run to them also!
