RE: Not having a ' trophy' mounted- Is it Disrespect?
Interesting....I am perplexed. I personally think mounted animals in honorable and beautiful....course I live in a log home and the setting is perfect but on any wall, they are beautiful. I' ll have to give this one some thought. I don' t think it' s disrespectful, but at the same time, your taking an animal away from someone who wants to see the mount on thier wall....hmmmm I' ll have to give this one some thought.
I do however admire your thinking towards the memory, the photos and at least hanging the antlers along with your others, even if it is on a shed. Hmmmm I' m perplexed.......I guess I can' t tell you what' s right and what' s wrong as long as you hold the animal in respect when you take them....you seem sound enough as a sportsman and hunter....what you do with the animals you harvest is up to you....who am I to say differently. I haven' t mounted all my animals as head mounts but I do plaque them, use them as decor and waste not. Good luck this season.
