    East Tx 9 Pointer - Redneck Art

    Take one Polk County 9 pointer. Add some old barn wood from the place and throw in an old metal No Trespassing sign an TA-DA!!! Opinions? This is my first attempt at redneck arts and crafts. Seems like it needs something more?

    I shot this last your on my place. Unfortunately in the clean out phase of the skull a critter found it and nawed on the nose a bit. Heads up if you toss a skull in an ant mound, watch out for critters and absolutely wire it to a tree ir fence post. If this was not wired it would be long gone!!! The bulk of the cleaning process was just soaking in a bucket of water. Ew, ew that smell... Can't you smell that smell!

    Anyway, for those wondering, this buck was aged at 4.5 years old and he was 13 and 1/8 inch wide. Whew!

    The antlers faded a bit in the clean out phase with exposure to the sun. I used Old English furniture polish to bring them back to life.

            The answer is that I bought this sign 35 years ago in a flea market in NJ and it has been hanging in my garage ever since. I don't think it was ever used!

              I like your thinking,... but this is an East Texas project so a Natural Light can would be more fitting.

                          Piece of roster barbed wire wrapped around it would be awesome
