Montana. I went with my father to a landowner's house to get permission to hunt. While my father was talking to the landowner, I was admiring all the piles of huge sheds laying around the yard. I saw the thickness on one of the antler's of this buck and wanted a closer look, so I pulled it out of the pile. It was (obviously) connected to the skull. After staring at it in awe for a couple minutes, I looked at the landowner and asked if she ever sold any of the sheds or skulls. She looked at me and said, "Oh, just take it." I knew that it had monetary worth, so I said, "No, I couldn't do that." After about the fourth time she told me to "just take it" and that she had plenty enough for the yard, I accepted. I obviously know the area it came from, but don't even know if it is a winter kill or something someone shot. I was very grateful to the generous landowner. They are also very good about letting people on their ranch and managing the hunters WITHOUT asking for a tresspass fee. It is nice to see that there are still good people around.
Probably more information than you wanted, but I thought I had better give credit where it is due.

P.S. Where do I pick up the Potassium stuff from post #2?
