muledeerarea33? Report post Posted December 9, 2015 I found one in 27 but it was taken by G&F for investigation and not returned. No hair or meat. dead a year or longer. Was a full curl plus a half. Think he wanted it for his collection, my fault for calling it in I guess. Yours is awesome Amanda!! Looks really wide! oh man, that sucks! I am glad they weren't interested in mine. Post some pics of yours! I found it before cellphones had cameras and before I had a cell phone lol. Wish I had carried a regular camera back then. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

208muley Report post Posted December 10, 2015 Because of the stuff that muledeer33 mentioned, he is not the only one who has that story, I don't think many people will admit they have them... If you spend any amount of time in sheep country you will find them... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TonyC Report post Posted December 12, 2015 Awesome pictures. If I came across one I would hesitate to call G&F just for the reason that there's a possible chance that they will take it. However, I would like to think the majority of the time they wouldn't care. I found a few cow skulls laying around on my scouting trip for javelina if that counts. . . haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CouesWhitetail Report post Posted December 12, 2015 Do sheep horns have to have a G&F plug to be legal? No....I asked AGFD that question specifically...they said they only plug hunter-taken trophies, not found skulls. I was surprised by that, I thought all had to be plugged, and I have heard from others that they used to plug pickup skulls too, but apparently that has changed.

I must of found mine when they used to plug because that's what the warden said when he took the skull that I never got back. Either way, I'm not bitter lol.

johnnie blaze Report post Posted December 13, 2015 What's a plug? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CouesWhitetail Report post Posted December 13, 2015 A plug is a special way to ID the horns....they drill a hole and insert the plug with an ID number on it. here is a pic of one I found on the internet to help illustrate what it is. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
