How much?

4corners_sportsman · Jun 6, 2015

How much money do you think you could make for a 77 inch fresh 4 point mule deer shed?

YBO · Jun 6, 2015

Just the brown price per #. probably about $20 bucks.

YELUM · Jun 7, 2015

Maybe $35 if from the guy with the match.

Hundreds and hundreds slice it 1/8th inch thick drill four little holes in the center sand both sides, buff both sides, sell five for five dollars as mountain man buttons on etsy.

Why Hell that's a $120 horn I saw it on Shed Wars !!

What would you guys think a brown 90" four point antler is worth? And what is it worth when I have the other side that is 89 1/2 that is also just a 4 point?

YELUM · Jun 11, 2015

You take $300 for it?

I don't think so, but thank you. I guess I should've asked do you guys think they're worth buying a cape and having them mounted? I don't know if I'll ever stumble across another 200" net typical. I would kind of feel guilty about having a set of sheds mounted. Has anyone else ever had a set done?

Buy a mountain mikes skull for it if you don't want to get it mounted. That's what I have done with all my big sets.

YELUM · Jun 12, 2015

I've mounted 7 sets ranging from 190 to 214. Enjoy them all. Your set would look great I'm sure. I do have a couple bigger sets I never mounted, so I understand you hesitation. Post up a pic. Love to see it.

I say to each his own what you want to do with your sheds! I had never sold a thing until last year when I made $120 for just junk antlers. This years junk with about half doz. decent hard white made $210. I think with the market being flooded now and in the future, this is a good year to sell. I took a plunge and got rid of 90 per cent of my greys, whites, browns, brokens, pieces,etc.of deer and elk this year and made $1390 more.I couldn't part with mule deer sets,or elk sets of decent-sized brownies and hard whites. Even though it's no trophy and was given to me,I like this smallish 4-pt. mount on my office wall:

And, no trophy, either but I want to mount this set with the previous year's sheds on a mount similar to the head I have someday. So, I say whatever tips your turtle, go for it!

This may be a crazy story for anyone here to understand:

A couple years ago, a friend of mine found about 7 deer sheds at the dump. He just happened to be there unloading a bunch of yard stuff and there they were, laying on top of a recent pile of garbage. Without hesitation, he grabbed them and put them in his truck. It turned out there was a 178" matched set in the lot. Heavy, brown/gray and even a couple little cheaters. We couldn't believe it. The next year, he bought a cape, and with the help of a neighbor taxi, he mounted those antlers himself. The dump antlers. The mount looks amazing in his home. It is unlikely he will kill a buck that large in his life. He may yet do it, but such an animal deserves a little more appreciation I think. I love that mount. No matter where he picked up the sheds.

We decided that a dude's wife may have got fed up and ran to the dump and thrown them out while her man was at work. :-D

I also have a mount from a 173" set I found back in 2004. The memory of those sheds is as vivid and exhilarating as killing a deer (well, almost). And the buck looks just as amazing as if I had killed it. To each his own.

Im currently having a buck mounted that I picked up a giant single to...had my 5 kids and my wife with me so I felt like it was deserved to mount. The side measured around 105" missing about 15". With the other side it would be roughly 265". I haven't taped him since it was finished but I will as soon as I pick it up.

4corners_sportsman · Jul 3, 2015

How are you going to mount it with only one side?
