None seem as good as the one you got.

[kennym]

They were youngins, but have some good potential!

[GCook]

They look good.  Hopefully I'll see one or two when I get up there later this week for the general season.

Euro looks good Kenny.

What's your technique.

[kennym]

This year with all the shop work I had so far this week I took it to a buddy!
LOL

Normally I skin it and get all the brain I can out, then simmer it for 45 minutes to an hour with a little dawn  dish soap in water . Then power wash it (or car wash) and I have some peroxide the ladies put on their hair that I paint on skull only .
Leave that in sun for an hour or two and wash good.

Be sure to protect antlers from steam or they can crack

Rifle starts Saturday, I bought a rifle tag to be legal hunting with my bow...

Well buddy after almost 3 years I finally got back out in the woods. I've got a pop up blind about a hundred yards behind the house and morning before last I had a buck coming in. He hung up around 60 yards I away. He wasn't much but I'd take him at this point. I've since done some work brushing it in and think that should help.

Depending on how my back feels I get out when I can. I still plan to get up your way this season.

[kennym]

Dang Charlie, I'm glad you got out!!   

Bro called a buck in this morn with a can call. Thought about grunting but with the rut this close decided to can him.  It worked!!  Only once for me in several years so I haven't even been carrying it, guess I should! LOL.

Well done Kenny, surprised I missed this. Congratulations on a great buck
