RE: Put me in the books.....
 

Thanks folks. All of the well wishes are very well received. To put an ending to the story....

...I skinned and butchered it this afternoon. The head and a good portion of the cape then found their way to the local taxidermist. I paid off last year's 6 and put a nice down payment on this one.

I attempted to go back out again this afternoon but found myself dozing in a treestand that was ill suited for the spot considering the wind conditions. I got down after only 20 minutes and call it quits. No point ruining a perfect day.

For those folks interested in my gear....
