RE: interesting question about farmers and deer, please respond....
Do you have to saw the individual antlers off, or can you just "chunck-out" that part of the skull and send them into together...because I tried to make a set of rattleing antlers one time and WaHOOOAAAA its hard to exagerate how tuff those antlers are!!! I was a kid then and had always heard but haddent ever learned. BTW I fried (almost literally) a mason bit drilling holes to put string through.
Don't live in Ohio and aren't serious about trying to hunt nuisance deer, but if the state required me to deal with the actual antler material...I just might pass.
