Title: I Wish I Still Had Them All
Post by: Hanshi on September 04, 2022, 08:21:45 PM
Okay, I left behind some antlers back in Georgia.  Then I left even more in Virginia.  Yes, some I mounted and gave away as gifts for display and gave some pieces away as well.  By the time I arrived in New England I had only a tiny fraction left from what I'd still possessed in Georgia.

I did have two more from way back down in the basement.  So I decided to add those to the wall mounted collection.  Nothing of particular notice except more clutter, but here you go!

I see some nice bucks. Most of mine were killed in Alabama, Wyoming, and Wisconsin. When I started hunting public land only, in Florida, I stored all my racks, still attached to the skull.
They're out in the barn up in the rafters in a bunch of boxes. I only mounted the skull plates of the Florida bucks since.

My kids will probably throw them all out when I die but until I die, they are mine. Maybe I could ask my wife to make them available to artisans for use as knife handles, pistol grips and the like  ..... as if she won't have enough to do.

I don't have any $$ to leave to my main squeeze if I go first.  But my modest battery I've collected over the last 60 years have mostly increased in value, some exponentially.  The rest of my stuff not worth much of anything.
