I just thought it would look cool next to last year's shoulder mounted 9-point. One guy even said, "It's going to look like you just found him on the side of the road!" I'm the one that gets to sit in my Lazy Boy and look at him.
Well it ISSSSSS your buck, to do with how ever you want. I think it would look good, and you could have the picture of you on your truck with the buck painted on the top of the skull. Thay would really look good to me. This pcture, ![]() |
there is nothing wrong with euro mounts they look awsome
|
I agree European mounts look good
I'll be away for a few days, going to Tucson Arizona for a wedding Friday after Thanksgiving. Will be having Thanksgiving dinner with the new daughter in law and her family. I knoe I've brought it up before but now that we have a full team, if we could come up with some suggestions for team names that would be cool. What ever sounds good to you guys would be cool with me. Don |
I talked to a buddy of mine in Raleigh and he said he would make the mounting plaque for me. He said he would do it for a six-pack of Newcastle Brown Ale. I've seen some of the furniture he makes so I took him a 12-pack. What I got is made of solid walnut, stained and beautifully finished. This euro mount is gonna look cool.
Here's the current score: Team #.1 Team #.2 Team #.3 Team #.4 - 25 Team #.5 Team #.6 - 25 Team #.7 - 285 4/8 Team #.8 Team #.9 -120 1/8 Team #.10 - 135 3/8 Team #.11 - 204 Team #.12 Team #.13 - 310 2/8 Team #.14 - 25 Team #.15 Team #.16 - 25 Team #.17 Team #.18 Team #.19 - 120 5/8 Team #.20 - 234 5/8 Team #.21 Teams 7 and 20 are catching up to us. I might go out Wednesday morning, but I have to go to the in-laws for the weekend so that will be it until December. I really need it to get colder here. Somebody please pick a name. ETA: Team 7 just scored another buck. They are going to take the lead. |
Sorry guys no buck for me. Worst rut I can remember. I will more than likely be with bow for the rest of the season. I might head out during muzzleloader. Good luck and I'll let you know.

Hope to add one come the weekend of December 19 - 20, will be doing a management hunt at DeSoto Wildlife Refuge that weekend. I've seen some big boys out there.

Good luck. I'm still trying to bag another doe. I know where she crosses the logging road, I just can't seem to catch her doing it. One time I sat there waiting for her and a cold front moved through. I put the rifle down to put on my gloves and that when she crossed. Since then I keep seeing her fresh tracks, but I can't be there when she does it.
I think we should say that the next man to get a deer names the team. |
You heard it guys next one to get a deer, doe or buck, gets to name the team.
You'll need to post a pic here for us all to see. Don |
i cant find time to get in the woods lately... we need 2 more good bucks
|
Yeah, I think we're in 4th place now! I am going to sit on that road again tomorrow morning. It's going to be relatively cold and wet this weekend (might snow Sunday!) so I might catch that doe.
Good luck everyone and be safe. ETA: Scores so far Team #.1 Team #.2 Total - 213 7/8 Team #.3 Team #.4 Total - 50 Team #.5 Team #.6 Total - 25 Team #.7 Total - 503 6/8 -- Smokeing -- 1st Place So Far Team #.8 Team #.9 Total - 120 1/8 Team #.10 Total - 211 6/8 Team #.11 Total - 321 Team #.12 Team #.13 Total - 310 2/8 Team #.14 Total - 25 Team #.15 Total - 100 4/8 Team #.16 Total - 325 7/8 Team #.17 Total - 50 Team #.18 Team #.19 Total - 250 2/8 Team #.20 Total - 234 5/8 Team # 21 2nd, 3rd and 4th are pretty close. A doe would put us in second. It will take a couple of good bucks to catch Team 7. |
