I met a guy at a Ducks Unlimited banquet last week ,he showed me a picture of a buck he shot with a muzzleloader in Ohio that scored 202 plus.Does anybody here in Ohio or nearby do antler casting,is there a market for a copy of these antlers??

There are a few of us in MI that do replicas. Need pictures to say if there is a market for them.

really anything over 200 if it is typical is very good, but if it is nontypical, sometimes they just are not that in demand. If there is a story on it, I bet there may be a contract already set on the real antlers. They may not be allowed ot make duplicates if they are paying for the story, then may have bough the rights already.
Hard to say.
