Default Got my buck back

Just thought I let you guy know that the taxidermist called today and told me my buck was ready that I got on Nov 1.
I decided to get something a bit different than the classic mount and went with the 'sneak' form. This buck was a real old timer. His face around the nose is all gray and under his chin he has whiskers about 7" long. Never saw them that long before.

Thats a dandy buck you got there bronko. I have 3 mounted on the sneak form, I really like that position.

Thanks Dave
Van - I never got him weighed but it took me and my son to get him out. I shot a few deer that dress out at around 150 so I estimated this boy was 200+.
Flint - Inside spread 17 1/4".

Dang Nice!

Now, you need to the Star Trek thing - put em in the replicator - replicate him and tell me where you put him when he is replicated and walken around in the woods again...

That is a fine buck for sure. Great work on the taxidermist's part for making sure the long whiskers were kept on the mount.
