Nice color indeed!  Great find and story, Tracy.   Good thing I guess, that trad-gang does'nt have "smellivision".   Whew!

Neat!!! A buddy of mine found two bucks locked together years ago. One was still alive so he finished him off. Mother nature can be cruel!!

Everytime I see these all I can think is "What a shame". Great find though.

True, but it's likely their sons are out there, somewhere!     :rolleyes:

That's a great find.  My cousin has a set of locked bucks that came from his parents place.  A conversation piece for sure.

Nice find.  It's true, not many woodland critters die of old age.  Jeff

Cool ! Great find. That's similar to how they recently discovered the prehistoric bones and so forth in CO. as well.

Very nice find!  And, they could just as easily have died on down the road from a car or disease.

Cool beams!
For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation.
