My hands always appreciate it when the brow tines are removed for rattling antlers. Those look good though!

I use to rattle a lot of bucks in south TX with real set antlers like yours.
Best thing I got is nip the tips bc it never fails when you try to mock a real buck fight you gotta get to hitting and scraping hard. I cant tell u how many times I got cut before I decided to blunt the tips...mostly the brows.
Nice job!

I was worried that the leather wrap would not stay attached. So far, it looks pretty good.
Some lessons learned. It would be great to have a belt sander to round the part of the antler where the leather wrap goes. All I have is some small, electric hand sanders and it does not get the job done. I might try my worksharp knife sharpener, but really need access to a knife maker with a commercial band sander to help with the sanding.
