Okay I shot at a 11 point in early bow season and I lost him. I looked all over but never found him. Well Monday I found his skull in a big sink hole and If I decide to mount him or something do I need a tag or anything?

Check him out and you will be good to do whatever with him. Without the check in you are in possession of an illegal deer.

What if you find the skull of one you did not kill? Can you take it home?

Yes, you can take it but you must check the deer in.

How do you tag in February

Im not TWRA but that is not true. If the deers skulled is bleached from weather then it dont have to be checked in.
But if you wanting to mount it im pretty sure it will have to have a tag on it.

Correct. If it is bleached/aged, you do not have to check it in. I should have been clearer in my other post.
