They're beautiful, Shed!
Hey, here's a thought... Can you back up and take a wider-view picture and get all your mounts in there? I think that would be neat to see!
By the way, did you ever get my story I sent you?

RE: 2 for 1 ...mounts are back, pix
Thanks guys, I hate posting pics with that old Digital...poor resolution...but its all I have...nevertheless, thanks gentlemen, I am glad you like the heads.
My basement is kind of neat, lots of sheds and some nice whitetail mounts..I will take some more photos sometime. I love the art-work of Taxidermy. One, I could never do it. No way...it just amazes me how some folks are so skilled at it. My Taxidermist, Mel and Kevin at wildliferecapture in Libby Montana are some of the best in the business. They do tons of work for Bass Pro, Cabelas, Eastmans, Etc...yet they are just good ole Libby Montana boys and they treat the common man/working man..great. They don't need my business...with their big accounts, yet you would never know it by how they act. Mel does give me a discount, He's more expensive than some around and cheaper than others..but his work is awesome.I personallyhavent seen better out west..My bear rug should be back in 1 month...from last spring, I can't wait. I do have my bear skull back it's awesome. Mel even used my bears skull to make a mold for his black bears that come in. My skull ended up measuring 19 and 14/16ths I believe it was.
Buckeye...I have killed a couple big bulls but have never had them mounted. Thats some CASH!!! and they take up room..I also have two bigmule bucks thatmy dad killed that I hope to mount up someday.One bull is on the wall, and another in storage...no room for it!!!! My house just doesnt have the room. My wife and I have plans though to add a great room ontoour little farm house with about a 20 foot vault someday for elk, mountain lion, moose, bobcat, we want some full body mounts...I have always told myself If I am ever fortunate enough to harvest an Idaho state bow-record typical or Non typical #1..either or..I will have him full body mounted!!!!! too...I have a 43 sq foot bull elk hide to put up on a big wall someday..too..itssweet, it covers a king size bed..Talk about hot to sleep under! I know how the mountain men stayed warm..
Rob, I think your place is just awesome, your home and mounts are really nice looking, I love the logs!
TJF, Thats what my wife says..what are we gonna do when the boys can hunt! Build on!
