Sliver's post brought something else to mind... Since there's a strong and ready market out there for these, on the "marginal" bucks I've been killing the last several years, I take them to my taxi and sell him the cape. He completely capes it out for me (he'd rather do this for me anyway to assure it's done to his satisfaction) gives me the skull back so I can do a Euro mount on it (looks better on this size buck anyway) and I get $75 for the cape.
Except for this year.......
My taxidermist saidour buck REALLY looks sharp.
Thanks again bro!
