RE: Deer Head, how much is it worth?
I don't know what it would be worth. I'm with duckhunter, it wouldn't be worth anything to me if I didn't harvest it myself. You might check an online auction site or something.

RE: Deer Head, how much is it worth?
You bet your ass its worth money, to the right person though. It depends on a lot of things. Where the deer was shot? What condition its in? What did it score if it has been scored yet. Was it video taped? There are some outfitters that pay money for stuff like that because they can turn around and sell it again for profit, especially for something big like that. They can can resell them and make money from antlers. My buddy just shot a 15 non typical in Iowa, in which I will try posting the pics tonight after I get the pictures developed after work. He was the talk of the town and a few different people already offered him 2500 for the rack. I will be telling the whole story tonight about his buck and my first buck, so keep your eyes out because I have pictures as well. If not I will be posting it tommorrow but I need to develop all my pictures tonight.

he can sell the antlers for about 8-10 bucks a pound ive heard...but why sell a 16pt rack? if i was lucky enough to take a buck of that size ATLEAST the antlers would get mounted more than likely id have a shoulder mount done...

About 20 years ago, one of the guys in our deer camp shot a 140-class 12-pointer. Someone saw it while driving buy and offered him $150 for the rack. The buyer didn't explain why he wanted it. My buddy did not sell it to him.
