jerkin'm Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 I shot my best buck on the last day of ML season last year...I was super excited despite the ground shrinkage when I got to him..I decided to do a shoulder mount and am kind of second guessing the decision..No idea on the score but he was a trophy to me at the time for sure..

SORNO Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 The only one I have antler mounted is my very first deer, 4 points of furry! I have shot 2 140+ deer and didn't have them mounted. I get a lot of [PoorWordUsage] from my friends for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minnesotahunter Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 I truly believe that a trophy is in the eyes of the beholder. If it is a trophy in your mind for whatever your reason is, then truly it is a trophy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Dave2 Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 A trophy is anything that makes "you" happy. If you look at the avatar to the left you will see a small northern that my son caught. Not very large in most peoples eyes but you can also see the large smile on my son's face. That smile is the best trophy I could ever ask for!

Musky Buck Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 Right on Big Dave, just before, during and after pulling the trigger or releasing the arrow or landing the fish, it truly is up to you and who you are hunting or fishing with. Your son Dave will always remember the experiences you are sharing together and those will last forever, nicely said ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Christianson Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 You guys are right. A trophy is whatever an individual decides is a trophy.BUT, the topic was begun asking what you consider a trophy that you would put on the wall. I havent seen too many spikes mounted.

vister Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 it depends on the quality of the deer where you roam come hunting season. rarely is a beast taken when there just isn't a decent herd around. If you have a lot of mature deer around, then chances are good there is a great buck around too. I have shot quite a few decent bucks in my day, but i always told myself there wouldn't be one on the wall unless it made the books. well, this year that happened, so i'll have one on the wall come summer!also, if someone were to spend the ching to go out of state for a deer hunt, then chances are you/they are looking for a trophy deer. So in that case, if you take a buck, you best be mounting it, cause the money spent aint nothing compared to what the mount will to remember that hunt!

Big Dave2 Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 I'm sure she is not in Minnesota. But how did you notice the buck or the scoped muzzle loader? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Christianson Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 She could have shot it during firearms season in MN.Totally legal.I'd bet of anyone, she and her peers are well aware of the laws regarding how to legally harvest deer.
