    Lol, thank you. I will tweak the one I posted based on spelling out Tacoma and adjusting the antler a bit. I will post after the improvements are made to get your opinions again. Thank you guys very much!

    Excellent... I'd like to see one using a whitetail deer antler with TACOMA.

    You gotta appeal to the most potential customers you can if you want to sell them in the future. Most hunted animal in North America is the whitetail deer. Just saying!

    You gotta be on drugs if you think mature whitetails are easy to kill. Lol. You may kill a doe, but mature bucks with a bow is hard as hell. Trust me I know first hand!

    Yeah no baiting in VA. I’m sure tons of people do it, but I never have. Probably why I haven’t killed a monster yet. I’ve killed decent bucks but not any huge ones.

    I wonder what it would look like with whitetail antlers, elk, etc with just the TACOMA cut out of the middle.... so shed antler but some of the base and main beam below the letters and then finishing with tines above it... who knows :) Anyway- that's all to say I like the first idea post- only killed one elk in my day but hopefully more to come

    You know here where I live, it’s hard to even put anything out nowadays. We are over run by black bears so when you put corn or anything out for game cam pics when it’s legal you basically get half the pics of bears. Kinda sketchy when you go to check the cams. I ran into a mom and cubs when going to check mine over the summer. Always carry my sidearm just in case. Bears will literally take the area over. Used to not be like this but they changed the bear tags (making you pay separately, they used to be included in deer tags) and now they are becoming waaaaay over populated. So even if baiting was legal here, you’d probably end up surrounded by bears most of the time anyway.

    This is basically in a neighborhood. That’s a huge bear.

    Whitetail Assassin, we have the same problem here and the Florida Black Bear is a protected species, not allowed to hunt them.

    Sorry OP, didn't mean to get off topic...

    I love hunting talk, keep it goin! I'm fully addicted to hunting, fishing and trapping! If any of you hunt Nevada or would like to, I can help you out with any questions you may have, or come along with me running my bobcat trap line.

    It’s only like $23 I think, but seeing bears isn’t really predictable since you can’t bait here. So before it was part of the deer and turkey price, but since people don’t expect to see bears frequently they are buying hardly any tags. I buy mine each year either way just in case. I’ve seen a few in bow season but they are either young ones or sows with cubs. You can’t play with poaching bears or anything. That will get you in serious shit so you gotta do it legally for sure.
