Old Warrior
      #266222 - 10/06/15 04:19 PM

Guided a hunter onto this old warrior on a recent hunt. I've not much of a collection but would have liked him in it. A trophy that no amount of points could ever do justice to. Had hardly any teeth left and not a square inch of hide without a scar. Glad it went to a guy who appreciated it for what it is. Now this old warrior will live forever.

That has so much more meaning than a "pretty" perfect even head. I would love such a fabulous old warrior on my wall!

The epitome of trophy,even dead it's telling its life story.

That's funny Larcher, I hope your wife does not read this forum too much, or there may not be any sucking for a while !

Don't forget Larcher, that a 'Marriage' that sucks together, stays together.
