Put a nice whitetail down tuesday.Shot going away ,45/70.Bullet entered ,came out upper neck side leaving two openings in neck flesh.One 3/4",one 5/8".But it gets worse.As though it wont die with 400 grains ripping from stem to stern,buddy puts a win. failsafe through the ear(1/4" hole) and out the bottom of the neck 1" exit.Is this thing scrap or going to look like crap?Its only 8 point,but its the weirdest 8 rack youve ever seen,about a 24" spread.I dont want to turf it,and I'm not into this head swap stuff.HELP.Thanks in advance guys.

you'd be surprised what your taxidermist can hide.....take it to him and talk it over.....

Charger,

By the way your explaining it it sounds like it's repairable. A good taxidermist with a fine needle can do wonders with a little time. I've repaired worse, I had one come in with 24 buck shot holes trough the shoulder, neck & head! The client wanted his cape, I fixed it, alot of time but it looked great. Good luck with it...............

Thanks fallas,you've given me hope.
