Default My Latest Mount

I just finished my latest deer mount, of a deer my grandfather shot a few years ago. My grandfather recently passed away to a year long struggle with Cancer, so the mount is sort of a memorial for him. It's hung in my parents house somy family canlook at it in rememberence of him. It's pretty cool how thepower of taxidermy can create something with such meaning.

Here is a story I wrote about him.

Your grandfather would be proud.

Not only of the buck but of the young man that is his grandson.
