I have the pics too of course, but let's not post them without the hunters permission. Somebody must know the guy....just ask him for permission to post....

I am happy to have available for sale the new Skull Hooker! This is a simple and elegant way to display your european skull mounts. I love skulls and will be using this for displaying some of mine. It comes in two sizes, so you can use it for smaller stuff like lion, bear, deer...or you can use it to display a bull elk or other large game. You don't have to drill into the skull at all, which means you can take the skull off and hand it to someone anytime you like. I like that feature! Check them out!! http://www.coueswhitetail.com/bookstore/skull_hooker.htm Skull Hooker was chosen to be the system that Boone and Crockett will use for displaying skulls at the 27th annual awards program!!

I asked and am hoping they will send me some showing the sides better.....

Ok.... here are the results: The actual whole weight of that lion was 156 lbs! We had six people that guessed within 1 pound and so instead of just 5 winners, I will give 6 prizes. the following people win a free CouesWhitetail.com tshirt: evil300 cleanhit tailchaser richard922 knock 'em dead rezdawg If you won, please email me (amanda@coueswhitetail.com) and give me your forum name, real name and mailing address along with what size, design and color shirt you want. here are some shirts to choose from (just added a new design with a monster buck on the front of it!): http://www.coueswhitetail.com/bookstore/tshirts.htm

A friend made this for Scott Adams. It shows his son Austin (age 14) and Scott with Austin's NM buck from several years ago.

Very nice!!

I sell the 22xt blades for the piranta as well. Like you said they are blunt tipped and designed that way so you don't poke a hole in anything. It also is a bit thicker blade so it resists breakage a little more. http://www.coueswhitetail.com/bookstore/havalon_knives.htm

I have always wondered how good these knives were. On the hunt where Scott Adams killed his giant buck, one of the guys with us had one of these knives and it was amazing how easy it was to skin and bone out the deer with this super sharp knife. The nice thing is you never have to worry about sharpening them. The blades keep their edge exceptionally well and when they do get dull you just put a fresh blade on it. Each knife comes with 12 blades so you can always have a super sharp knife to skin anything. Check them out! http://www.coueswhitetail.com/bookstore/havalon_knives.htm Amanda

Cool!!!

Not a problem Cory...I hope you raise some good money for his family. What a sad story.

try washing with scent remover soap, the kind you can shower in to remove human odor or use a product called Nature's Miracle...it's for removing pet odors and it works GREAT on removing skunk odor, so it should work for blood too. Can get it at pet stores. Or search online for it.

He was very big bodied!! That buck was in stellar condition with a gorgeous coat and lots of fat. here is a pic of him alive with a mule deer:

I actually do think about this kind of stuff when I am on a mtn top! I am so very thankful I am physically able to do all the climbing that I do. It wasn't but a couple months ago I was in the hospital and couldn't hardly even sit up on my own, so being able to climb big mtns on my recent was a real privilege! Good Reminder!
