Just stopped at Dewey’s in Wadena to pick up a shoulder mount and wow if in the area worth stopping. Must of had 75-100 shoulder mounts drying etc…biggest was 212” My UPS driver likes to take his breaks at Bjorstrom's taxidermy in Osakis so he can look at all of the mounts/racks in progress  I'm anxious to get mine back. I've forgotten what it looks like up close. I can’t wait I get mine back (my first) this waiting is for the birds. |

Twenty six different things were scored. A second official measurer came from Duluth to help finish up. The original scorer was tired by the end, but did a great job.
We had velvet racks from North Dakota, a trophy metro bow kill, a very large bear skull, and what might be the 10 th largest buck from our county. Our county includes Camp Ripley.
The county fair was a place to get an official score. Some chose not too have pictures taken with their antlers/ bear skull and not to enter it in any of the books.
I respect their choice of privacy, but it was fun to visit and share stories.

^^^I give you a lot of credit Art, you get involved and get things done. . I wasn’t in charge of this project to begin with, but our chapter president lives in Stearns county and told me to go ahead and do it like in the past. I was on duty for 4 hours on Saturday, but spent 11 hours there. There are lots of old friends and clients to BS with. The guy working with me was from the Little Falls area. his Dad was a longtime member of the chapter(Stu, I won’t mention his Dad’s name, but you met him. The short German guy with an accent and the hilly hunting ground). Anyway this fellow working with me had relatives in the Upsala area. Between the two of us, we knew lots of people who came into the building. Lots of BS. |
