Title: Bid a shed.. Tear it up guys. :)
Post by: Biggerhammer on May 28, 2012, 10:58:56 PM: The Game Department has every angle.

Hahaha! Buy a Bull. They have a elk skull antlers attached B&C 387. 6x7 bids only at 61.00 bucks, just think. You can have the big boy on the block and never have to purchase a rifle or apply for a permit for the last 20 years. Hehehe :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle:

:puke:

Otherwise they would just be destroyed. Which would you rather have happen? As far as getting a trophy to brag about, it make me wonder if the purchasers had any pride at all. Claiming one of these as a trophy would require very low self esteem and lousy ethics.

Post by: NWBREW on May 29, 2012, 08:35:59 AM: Well, I might be bidding on a few of the items. Depending on what they go for I could make a lot of things out of them..no bragging for me.....just cutting them up for stuff.

I don't have any problem with donating some money for game enforcement, but I definitely wouldn't be bragging about any buck or bull that I didn't shoot. No pride to be taken. It's not the same when someone asks you where you got it and you have to tell them you got it at an auction.
