Don't collect them but dig finding them when I'm out and a bout.

just the paper shell is what I like. don't care on why a hunter doesn't pick them up. It gives a way were all the game is.but I do, I pick up there mess.

I've thought about doing the same thing. I took a couple of them, removed all remnants of paper and polished em up and with a little work they look pretty good and are easily readable. Also, there's a link below to a site to help identify them as to maker and year...pretty interesting.
