First of all. Congratulations on the buck! any buck or deer killed with a bow and arrow is a trophy. However, you may want to check those H measurements again. I cant see how this buck could come close to 4-1/2" bases. I dont see how they could even be 3 inches, but maybe its just the picture. Just something you may want to get someone to double check. I do not say any of this with a sour attitude, just inquizitive.
