I have my finished basement that is my space. I put what i want inthere(deer, fish, hides, old bows, and archery photos). The rest of the house she can do what she wants with. Just dont mess with my basement or garage.

The shoulder mount is fine but the new euro mountisn't liked as much.
It is on the wall where it is not "looking" at her when she is watching t.v.
But it is still in the living room.

Hey, in our house I make all the big decisions and the wife makes all thelittle ones.....It just so happens there hasn't been any big decisions yet[&:](jk)

I haven't shot what I think to be a mounter yet. But when I do you can bet your sweet a$$ its going in the garage...

Right now I have a 1000 piece deer puzzel I put together and framed over the fire place. I don't think it would be a problem, but most of all pics and antlers are in the garage now. But thats where I spend most of my time anyway!

At first it was "over my dead body". Well I did't want to spend the rest of my life in prison and we decided to "let" me hang it in the basement TV room. Well my wife took one look at it there and decided it looked terrible there. "She" decided it would look better over the fireplace in the living room!

It's not that I couldn't put them anywhere in the house, but I have my own room that all my racks, only got 1 mounted Whitetail, and fish mounts go. It is also where I have my gun safe, prints, hunting related books, videos, ect. It is also where I keep my computer.

I got my only deer mount a few years back. I wouldn't have got it done but it was for free.I was told by my mother it was not going in upstairs of the house. Ma and Pa went away for a week to visit family and i waited till they made it out of the driveway then started huntin for the stud in the wall in the living room. Punched in a screw and hung that baby up. Best part was i was back in college b4 they came home. Been 3 years and its still there and I think she is takin a liking to it. Dad isn't a hunter at all but really likes it. I told him if i get this particular buck next year he is goin on the same wall but a bit over. Dad thinks it would be a good idea to get a doe's a$$ mounted stickin out of the opposite wall so both bucks could stare at it. I think we will have to work on ol ma a bit for that to happen.

i think he looks happy despite what mother says.

Well I was told not in my house but what can she do? I haven't shot anything big enough for a head mount. I have a spot for it. My piebald sits in my foyer so I'll ask you who won?
