I’ve never understood the horn-hunter mentality.
You can’t eat the antlers. I like to see the scale go past 200lbs.
I’d much rather work up one 200+ deer than two or three slicks to hit the same weight.
Well, don’t come to my house because there are trophy racks and stuffed critter mounts ALL OVER the walls, LOL!
But, Beau never wastes a thing when it comes to butchering. My contribution is one 6-point buck; my first and last.
I don’t have the patience it takes; I’m better at helping with the butchering, the clean up and the camp cooking. :)
