Post by: Michelle_Nelson on July 16, 2009, 09:06:31 PM: Yes she is indian. This was her first Elk. It is actually Artificial Velvet. When she shot it and it fell it broke the velvet. They also didn't know how to care for the velvet and the head sat in the back of the truck for a few days befor they decided what they wanted to do with it.
