My buddy has found a few dead deer and he does a euro.
You can see 3 of his euro's in this pic and he separates them nicely between his own mounts.

Well where are you from then?? haha

Yeah, but with the skull being so broken on this, it doesn't seem like it would work?

Awesome looking deer with lots of character!

My brother shot a buck this fall, and him being the impatient person that he is, when i was cutting the skull cap out, he thought he could bust it out. Needless to say, he broke it right down the middle. I have a good taxidermist friend so i took it to him and he simply epoxied it back together. From the top looking down, you would never know it was broken. It might be alittle more labor intensive if you were going to do the entire skull done for a european mount, but it is possible to do. It would probably cost you alot less than a full mount too. Awsome deer by the way.

How about something like this..... http://www.sportsmansguide.com/net/cb/cb.aspx?a=492910

That is a great buck and should be displayed some how.

Awesome buck, but I can't understand why someone would want to shell out several hundred dollars to mount a rack they walked up on. COOL no doubt, but paying to mount it? Heck if it was me, I'd look into selling that puppy. LOL My friends dad mounted a deadfind deer, just didn't understand it....he even hung it right beside the rest of his kills, but will always admit it was just found. Oh well, not my money or deer.

That dude was a beast though!

I guess I feel like some deer just deserve it. I don't know why. If he was smaller I wouldn't even consider it.
