Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Deer Horns

I gave a big box of 'em to some guy we saw at a re-enactment rendezvous in Oklahoma who makes buttons out of 'em to go with his buckskin clothing he makes.

Just left an auction a couple of hrs ago here in Va.
With probably 20-25 mounts and horns , could hardly give them away...,

Not sure about current situation. However, 30 years ago in rural PA, people would listen to the scanner. When they heard of a deer-vehicle collision, they would drive to the scene of the accident to claim the deer for the meat.

Local protocol was that the driver whose vehicle was damaged had first dibs. Then to the first person on scene, etc. Ran EMS for 3 years while I lived there. A couple times nearly witnessed fist fights over a road kill deer...

Yep. They cant seem to figure out Viagra works, so they pay big bucks for antlers, rhino horns and deer penis.

Sheesh.

Made a couple knife handles, not too pretty but functional. This one on a Cattarugus? knife I found in the woods. Stacked leather handle was mostly rotted away.

Unless you contact the game warden and he can give you permission to take the carcass. My nephew hit a deer in Tx, totaled the car. Deer laying in the ditch a 100 yds. back from the car. Two dudes stopped and called the GW and was waiting on him to come and let them have the deer. They didn't check on my nephew and his family, they were only interested in the deer. After I checked to make sure everyone was ok, I walked back to look at the deer. One of the fellows informed me that they were claiming the deer. I told him they could have it if my nephew didn't want it. GW showed up and asked my nephew if he wanted the deer, which he didn't. Gave it to the 2 fellows.

Illegal to sell trophies here, but the antlers and horns may be sold as long as they are cut up to eliminate trophy value. Exceptions are estates, divorces, and foreclosures.

Mmmm, mmmmmmm save me the neck Clark

Or the one with the busted shît sack and tire marks.
