I rarely take pictures of the game I shoot but two years ago,I killed a gobbler with my bow and asked my wife to take a picture.It was early in the morning and she didn't feel like digging batteries out for the camera.Somehow,that feat didn't impress her.
I just don't have the desire to take pictures of my harvests anymore. I've even taken down most of the pictures I've had hanging around and given away alot of the sheds I've picked up over the years. Turkey tails have been donated to the Healing Waters Project for disabled vets to use for fly tying. Even gave my decent bull elk antlers to a friend to hang on his cabin which overlooks the Kettle Creek Valley. A more fitting place for a noble bull that perished to a sharp broadhead than hanging on my basement wall collecting dust.
I guess when I look at the pictures and trophies, I realize that they looked much better when they were alive a few seconds before I killed them. That's the way I'd rather remember them anymore.

Ha! Shoulda made her pluck it then!
