Default Should I mount.

I was thinking about doing my buck this year in a European mount . What do you guys think. Do you like them, do you have them, and should everyone have one... Just thought something different might be nice. The wife is saying how many deer can we put on the wall.. LMFAO.. So I just thought I might do something else this year. Give her something different to look at..LOL Any thoughts...

Pedestal mounts are pretty cool

I myself do not like european mounts, but that is just me. If I were to shoot something like that, I would mount the whole head.

Whole head on a pedistal not the wall so you can get closer to it and see it in close up detail I'd put it on an old fence post

I've started to do a lot more euro mounts - really like them... They don't take as much room to hang and you can always grab another cape down the road and do a shoulder mount if you want to go that direction...

My wife complains about my shoulder mounts the way it is, there is no way I could get pedestal mounts into the house.... ha ha
