NTA IS ANTLER COLLECTING
I hope everyone will get enthused about and collect some antler for our 2021 NTA Convention. It is our wish to be able to collect several thousand pounds of antler. If this works, as we know it can, it will mean a great deal of work at the convention. We need your help in processing the antler you collect. Iowa law does not allow us to sell antlers on the skull so please cut antlers below the burl, being sure to not damage the burl. Sets of trophy class antlers should be zip tied together. We will be lotting out antlers by species and condition and if everyone can try to bring antlers in lots that fit these parameters it will make check in go much faster and smoother. We will separate by species, Mule Deer, Whitetail Deer, Blacktail Deer, Elk, Moose, Caribou and Exotics. We will also separate out spike elk and six point and better elk. We cannot sell wild sheep horns or antelope horns, so please do not bring wild sheep or antelope horns. ANTLER CONDITION #1 – Good brown not damaged or chewed #2 – Slightly damaged or chewed, bleached or slightly cracked #3 – Badly damaged, cracked or broken Trophies Our lots will look like something like this: #1 Mule Deer #2 Mule Deer #3 Mule Deer Trophy Mule Deer #1 Whitetail Deer #2 Whitetail Deer #3 Whitetail Deer Trophy Whitetail Deer #1 Elk Spike #1 Elk Branched #1 Elk 6 Point #2 Elk #3 Elk Trophy Elk Moose, caribou and exotics will be lotted likewise depending on how much antler we get of each species. Talk to everyone who hunts, they might have a few antlers hanging in the woodshed or barn that they might be willing to donate. LET’S MAKE IT HAPPEN!!!!!!!! IOWA DOES NOT ALLOW THE SALE OF ANTLERS WITH ANY SKULL CAPS ATTACHED SO CUT SKULL CAPS BELOW THE BURL AT THE BASE OF THE ANTLER, BEING SURE TO NOT DAMAGE THE BURL. Attached is a pic of where to cut the antlers from a skull. For more information or if you have antlers to donate, please contact Joe Paolilli at 603-352-2089 |
