Strut10 Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 Nope. Not a typo. With Maine Hntr's great pics, and Rhino's much awaited post................ AND me FINALLY figuring out how to post a pic here, again........... In 2012 I arrowed one of my better bucks. No monster. But of pretty rare quality for around these parts. The problem was........he had gotten into a fight and took a tine right between his chin and throat patch, leaving an abscess that made him look like a pelican. The abscess rendered his cape unfit for a mount. Fast forward to last season, and a buck I shot that I normally would not have (it happens). The silver lining to THAT was his cape was beautiful. Sooooo.............. 2012 antlers and 2021 cape go to the taxidermist, and............ 10 years later, the buck is finally where he should be.

Maine Hntr Posted October 15, 2022 Report Share Posted October 15, 2022 Cool story Strut. Pretty cool they’re able to do that and that you were able to keep the antlers in great shape. Congrats on the trophy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strut10 Posted December 17, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2022 Thanks, fellers !!! The lighting in the garage is........... I don't know. But it makes things look washed out. The pic I posted does NOT do the mount much justice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
