Shoulder mount.. Hes got a couple friends to hang out with for the rest of my time on earth..Hopefully when I am dead and gone my boys will have my bucks and the memories to share..with future Pottengers..

I do want to do something different this year with this mount.. This deer taught me a lot the past couple years.. I am better whitetail because of him, the good Lord and you guys... keeping me in check.. thanks..

Again Troy, congrats on the fine buck!

Do you happen to have any pics of your blind? I'm interested to see your setup.

Wow! what an excellent buck!
Congratulations to you.

Congrats Troy!!! You deserve him!

Wow what a slob, aewsome buck, what state did you smoke him in?

What a beast, awesome job

Way to go Troy. Them chocolate antlers are going to look super mounted. You know I couldn't be happier for you friend. You earned that buck. Enjoy the memory brother. Chris

Congrats! Way to go.

Duc..

I build a lot of them.. hunting public grounds I make them very inconspicuious but there are a few important factors thatI have learned from mistakes...to incorperate into all of them.. In other words I'd bet 99% of the guys around herewould walk by my blinds and not see them..but once I tuck into them they work well.. I use native habitat and always have a"wall" so to speak on both sides to shield a bucks view of me, while I can see him through it...this allows me to draw early before he gets out in front of me or inthe open.. when he can see me..its too late..

I'd be glad to do a little pictorial..I shoot some photos of a few of mine if you'd like..

Troy, I'd be interested in seeing your blind technique as well. I got access to a new property this year that is almost all thick nasty hedgerows and very hard to get stand into. I know I could effectively hunt in with ground blinds, and could use any pointers you might have.
