A young mman has been trapping behind my garage lately. Today Myself and a freind (Jay) were going to do a little stump shooting and when we were getting ready here comes Josh to run his traps. We decided to tag along flinging arrows as we went. I was pulling some arrows out of a creekbank when Jay said hey look at this!



He had found a nice skull of a buck. Not sure what killed him the whole skelton was there but no signs of any bone damage. I figure he was shot and not recovered and managed to get this far. any ways he was only about 60 yards behind my garage or so.



I figure hes in the mid 140's anyway. I guess I need to spend some more time in a treestand back there next year a little closer to the house!

Real nice find!!  Joe

Wow...whata monster. Nice find!

master bedrom right! My wife runs the house I run the garage so it goes out in the "man room" (wife calls it the doll house)I built in the garage with all my other trophies and such. in fact thats where the picture was taken she would kill if it was in the house!

Very nice but more towards the 130's I would say. I would cut them off and than take off the brow tines and use them as rattlin' horns! Shawn

IMO - As clean as it is and as much green as I see I would estimate that skull had been laying there a year.

I'd been more than happy finding that!
