For those who like to hear scores....the final gross score was 148" & change. Net typical frame 143-0/8". Plus there are two sticker points measuring 1" and 3-1/8". --------------------

I really like the coloration of the cape. These things grow a crazy amount of antler! As far as score, he ended up a little over 350 inches net. I think the P&Y minimum is 300. Had a pretty good year....resulting in quite a bit of taxi work! He still has my Colorado Mountain Goat and Iowa whitetail yet to finish --------------------

Mine was, and I wish I'd left it on…..The airline AND outfitter wanted a bunch more money to ship them back with the velvet on though….so I peeled it.

I would've loved to have left it on, but the export paperwork and the crating/shipping arrangements takes weeks and the velvet would've rotted. At least I got some good pictures.
