    There's antlers in the roll cage of the forklift.

    That said I saw the largest buck I've ever seen taken last night. Unfortunately it was hit by a truck on a 45 mph road. Huge rack, and a lot of damage. Most of the meat looked to be unusable, but the track appeared in tact, and massive.

    It's a shame that the animal had to be wasted like that. At least a hunter would respect the animal more than the truck. Plus bullets are a lot cheaper than insurance claims.

    Sheds mounted to forklift. I had to look twice to see them.

    Completely.
    Thanks Horkn. See though, they blend right into the background of branches and stuff.
    If there had been a deer attached, I woulda' seen 'em.
