Its nice to see such an Awesome Buck in Missouri.....I'd fix it up and hang it on the wall!
I found a nice Big 10-Point Buck on our Farm a few years ago,I had lots of trail camera pictures of him for 2 years in a row...someone had shot him during Rifle Season in Nov and he ran back to out property and died.All that was left of him was the skeleton and little bit of hair on his head and 3 legs,I found him on Feb 18 about 3 months later and reported to our local Conservation Agent since we are suppose to report finding any Dead Bucks that we are wanting to keep the Head/Antlers from within 24 hours of finding them.
I recieved a written reciept on the Bucks Head/Antler's and took him to my local Taxidermist and he supplied it with a new cape from another Buck and mounted the 10-Point Buck in all his former Glory!
