Buck killer, that shoulder mount is one of the best ive seen!!

Thank you,

The guy I brought it too does excellent work, he use to be a high school art teacher, and works out of his home in waconia, MN. In the last 5 years I brought him my deer head, velvet antlers (to get freeze dried) and 4 fish. He costs a little more then everyone else but I trust him. If you want his name and number PM or email me and Ill hook you up.

I'm not sure what he weighed, I just know he was heavy. It took the 3 of us about 4 hours to drag him about 1 mile back to the tent. I wish I would have stopped to get a weight, but at the time we were sick of dragging/lifting him so we decided not to. He was probably around 200 lb I would say.....

The mount looks great, but the form that was used gives his head a more narrow look, rather than the big, round shape that it really had. Overall I'm real happy with the mount, though. Here is a front view:

Nice buck! I don't know I'd be pretty happy with that sitting right next to me on the couch...

Thanks bigbucks. I will have to ask the wife if it can just stay on the couch for a few weeks. grin

That is a beautiful deer and a very nice mount. The cape is stunning.

Thank you. My dad got his deer mounted by the same guy near bismarck and his looks great as well. The coloring on my buck was significantly darker than my dads when we got the mounts back and looking at the pictures when we shot them, you can definitely tell the difference in color.

This will be the last of the pictures guys, I promise. I wanted to post a picture of my dads mount and the color difference between the two. Both were shot on my in-laws farm last year and thought the difference in color is pretty cool and the character of his buck.
