Default RE: To mount, or not to mount?

I've only everhad 2 mounted for me. Well the 2nd one should be done soon.Wehad Tyler's velvet buck ( 1st bow buck ) mountedfrom 3 years ago which actually was the firstone. Unless Tyler drills a big buck, I doubt we will get any mounted this year. Saving up for the elktrip out to Troy's. If we are lucky... we will be having an elk to be mounted next year.

Otherwise it has to be 150 or better/ a buck with a lot of historyafter the 1st mounted buck/deer per family memberin this household.Britney says if she shoots a doe... wewill have tohave it mounted if it is her first deer when she starts hunting.

Some day I willtake a cape from a buck I shoot and have my rack off my very first bowbuckmounted up. It only been 24 years since I shot him, he can wait a couple more years.

We willsave the capes though and have them tanned just incase I come into money some day. Our taxidermist also will trade capes for horn mounts.

Not into the euro mounts. Wife mentioned something about shooting me and mounting my arse to the wall should I ever think about trying to bring a skull into the house to hang.
