Thanks! I'll check them out.

I know there used to be a couple of leather places that would trade you a pair of gloves for your deer hide in northern Idaho. Does anyone know if there is someone in south east Idaho that will do the same? Thanks!

Yes, there is a possibility. It's a personal desicion as to whether you feel bear spray is worth it. I personally carry spray and a firearm as I would like to have as many options as possible if I encounter one.

When you guys find one side of a set, particularly elk, how do you typically proceed to find the other side? Do you start searching in an ever increasing circle? If so, how far from the first antler to you get before you give up and continue on? Or do you make no adjustments and just continue...
