What do You Think of This

I think it's a shame.
There are a couple VERY GOOD trophy class Muleys wasting away here.

These pics are from a ranch front yard. I visited with the owners last week and asked if I could take a couple photos.

The pics may not show it real well, but there is 1 monster rack in each photo.
The bases were as big as my wrists and more than 30 inches wide.

The ranch owner killed these bucks on the ranch.

If I had them I would certainly take care of them, not let them waste away outside.

Most ranchers around here dont give a dang about horns,i know of a 235" nontyp nailed to a barn and a 190" wt rack sitting in a chicken coup,almost every old ranch yard has a pile of racks laying around it somewhere,to each his own.

to me it is a waste. but i do know a lot of older people who have never put a value on a big mule deer rack. they just throw them away with the head and cape.
