BH818 - So the dead red worked for you?!?! Too bad about getting busted. I got busted at full draw twice last weekend. I need to be more careful now. Since the leaves are falling, there is not as much cover as before.

Camp, that buck looks good as is! I looked greenville up and is that somewhat north west pa? If so, after i shoot my big buck this year i may have to take a road trip and drop him of to you! haha

Do you have more pictures of your mounts? Also, what do you do if someone wants a deer hide tanned? Do you do that as well? I just sent a hide out to eastcoasttaxidermy in eastern pa to get tanned.

That deer looks very good, seems like you do some pretty good work. Is that the semi-sneak?How much does a deer head run out there?

My cousin is a taxidermist here in Illinois and give me a "discount" on mine. However for $300 it is still cheaper than anywhere else around here that I could go to. I finally took up turkey hunting this past year and killed a pretty decent bird, but opted not to get it mounted. I wish I would have. I'm going to try to chase them with my Mathews this season and will definantly be putting that one up.

Camp - Ill have to look them up. This was my first hide I decided to get done and looked on line and found them. I didnt know of any others. I am open for suggestions. I guess ill test out ECT and then maybe the next one send off to AC. I built a log bed and want to hang the hide over the foot end of it. I think that will look pretty cool or just lay it on the floor by the foot end. Thanks for the suggestion.

Thats good to hear man. You never know what them whitetails are gonna do. I had that one come in last Friday picture perfect and just before the shot he busted me. I hate when that happens b/c then i play the should'a game and keep saying i should'a done this and i should'a done that! The weather is cooling off this weekend so hopefully that will get the big boys moving! Ill be putting out some dead red and some blind date.

Guys I don't know what's going on here. Things should be rolling, and tonight nothing. Cold front coming in, falling baramoter, perfect wind, and NO DEER. Not really sure what to think.

I wanted to hunt a particular stand that I have left alone. The only time I hunted it was when I passed on the 115 incher 10 pointer that we got on video. I was getting ready and the wind was wrong. So I hurried up loaded up the 4 wheeler and said my prayers that I wouldn't meet any cops on my way to the farm. After a VERY quick trip, I was settled into a stand. Things just seemed right. The scrapes around there were still being worked, and many fresh tracks were there. NO DEER THOUGH. Nothing. On my way out I was walking along the field edge back to the 4 wheeler and I smelt that buck smell. I was right in front of another stand I have hung along the field, and looked and not 5 yards away is a freshly worked scrape.[:@]

Oh well I'll be back at it as soon as I can.
