    Kinda neat to see your deer on the wall with all the others, but unless something of a freak size it'll get lost with all the others. Read: the novelty of the event is short lived.

    But it gets you in free, or something like that.

    I did it once, but wouldn't do it again.

    Do like seeing other people's deer, but with all that antler the 140-180 class typicals get kinda boring.

    There simply are so many in one place they lose their grandeur.

    Returning your mount

    Yes I'm sure they do want you to bring back a good buck. They don't care how hard on it transportation is. Don't let there flattery get to you. There are plenty of guys out there that would gladly bring in their mounts despite the risk you run anytime you transport them anywhere.

    Me, Grunt Soldier, and my dad will probably be there sometime. We usually stop by and check it out.

    I'll be there with my hunting buddies. Last year I got there about a half hour before the doors opened, parked by the front door and got to make a pass thru before the crowd got there. what time do the doors open?

    I cant make the deer expo, but I'll be at the Motorcycle. I was really hoping to get my first deer scored. I have 2 problems, I'll be out of town and my mount isnt done yet. :(
