My first buck done by dermestid beetles.
Tip of the day: learn how to cape a buck and get a good trade in for a euro. This cost me nothing and I didn't have to smell up my back yard for months on end. :IBCOOL:

Very nice, buck looks great :tup:

:tup: nice buck and great pic

Nice pic indeed! I always wonder why more people don't save their capes. Most taxidermist will flat trade a euro for a good cape.

:yeah: I save bears and elk too and trade for or credit with my taxi.

Very nice Bean... you must be in Phoenix or something eh?
Because most people are lazy!! I know people that leave elk and even moose capes in the dang woods...

What can I say? I'm Seattle born and raised. But when it came my turn to shell them out, how could I pass up the opportunity to be that guy?

I don't think its always laziness. Its a long day when you put down an elk or a moose. First priority needs to be preservation of the meat as far as timeliness goes. If the hunter has already made up there mind on an antler mount only, the cape might be a distant priority that is quickly forgotten.
