That's cool.....sad but cool. Sorry they had to go that way but at least you found them and they did not go totally to waste.

Awesome find Tracy, hope the skulls hold the color...I think they look cool that way!

I've only heard a couple Blacktails ever getting locked together.

That's really a cool find Tracy! That muck turned them a really neat color.

I agree Ron, When they were wet from the washing they really looked good. I plan on varnishing them and trying to keep the color.

Tom, It's a new place for us so everything is new to us but were seeing some other good bucks there.  :D  

You know, They probably drowned pretty quick because of the deep water and didn't have the longer death like some of them do. Like said, very sad but a part of nature few of us ever get to see.

Thanks for looking!

Great find.....that will be a neat display.  Just hope PETA and the Humane Society don't try and blame hunters for these two bucks dying from an inhumane death because someone didn't shoot one of them first.

That will be a heck of a conversation piece
