Default RE: What do you do with your horns?

MOst of mine are on a plaque of some type, except for the latest 2, which I did the whole skull thing. Since I have recently moved I don't have them on display yet, but once things get settled more they will all be on display in one way or another.

Default RE: What do you do with your horns?

Ive accumulated about 30 sheds and a few winter kill/roadkill bucks and ive found all kinds of neat things to do with them. I have made a dream catcher with one and used a set of matching sheds for curtain holders(draw the curtains back and holds them in place ,used them for rattling antlers and i am hoping to collect enough of the smaller antlers to use as kitchen cabinet and drawer pulls and drawer pulls for the end tables in the living room, and did a arrangement of turkey and pheasant tail feathers that looks kind of like a floral arrangement with some antlers in it.Thinking about making some candle holders also. So much to do and and so little time to do it when your hunting all the time. Seasons almost over so i guess its time to get busy<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

I have a couple sets mounted on plaques and the rest I use for towel/clothes hooks in my sauna at camp. I have one set with the skull intact on the ridgepole of the sauna - it covers up the fact that the two facia boards don't quite meet perfectly <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

Lets see. I made a cool antler mount, it has two mounts for antlers at the top, MY BIG DEER, then I took a set of my smaller antlers, cut them at the bases and fixed them on the bottom of the plaque to hold my gun. It looks really good. The rest are just sitting in a crate in my storage room waiting for me to make plaques.

Good Luck This Season: Buck Magnet
P.S. Only Chuck Adams can sit at home and see deer so get into the woods. =;^)

Never shot an animal with horns. But I have 3 deer antler displays in the house, one shoulder mount, one skull mount, and one set of antlers mounted to a plack.

I've made a gun rack out of a nice big 6'er. It would be cool to have one of those chandeliers made out of antlers. ANyone seen that in the bass pro magazine.

Default RE: What do you do with your horns?

If it makes 120 class I usually put them on a plaque and if it's a real big one I'll mount it. But there is a couple piles of antlers in the shed that are about waist height from my brothers, dad, and myself, and shed antlers.
