Would you sell the deer?


I couldn't, it would mean to much to me. However, I may lease it out to some people for a few years, I don't have anywhere to put it at the moment anyways.

    like you, i might consider leasing it, but i would never sell it. i'd get hooked up with all the major sponsors, start hunting for a living, quit my job, move west and buy a ranch. become buddies with the Nuge, start my own tv show, ya know......just the normal stuff.

    After I changed my underwear, I would probably sell it. They're worth too much money not to, IMO.

    WHAT!!! you'd sell your underwear? Gross! [:D][:D]

    Anyway, I am in the process of haveing my record Turkey mounted and will get it back in April....I know a guy at Bass Pro that said the BP would problaly offer me about $4-6K for it. Don't think I'd do it just cause I doubt it will be displayed at my local store.

    After wetting myself, I would probably use it to make as much money as I could without selling it, becoming a corporate wh*re and lending my buck's image to everything from urine scents to cereal boxes. I would invest wisely and eventually open a food processing plant specializing in habanero salsa and bbq baked beans.

    I'll just advertise them as "made in america" and sell them to the French. They'll buy anything.

    they can make replicas of deer these days. i'd get a rep made and keep it on my wall, and sell the other, or vice versa.

    I would make an agreement where the company buying has to supply me a identical replical and have my name on the original then I'd sell it.

    I think that is what ENOS was referring to. I'm guessin anyway.

    I believe the guy your talking about got a nipple mailed to him by someone named Bang and he is still sucking it. (In between ULTIMATE whitetail deer conventions of course).
