I've mounted oodles of my racks on plaques, but have never had a deer head mounted.

I killed a nice black bear 3 years ago. I had a rug made out of it. It is beautiful. Two years ago I killed another bear, and my cousin had a rug made out of it.

This year I killed a small black bear boar. (140 pounds) I had a full mount made of it. It wasn't the bear I wanted when I went hunting...but it is a beautiful animal. To be honest, I was disappointed in the animal at first. However, I know it's not the size of the animal...it's the amount of work you put into it and the amount of fun you have on the hunt.

If I work my tail off to kill a spike and another fella shoots a 12 point 25 yards from his truck...which is the greater trophy???

Because they cost $400 and they take up a lot of space! I go for a PY or better every year and if I accomplish my goal every year,and I mount every one, by the time I retire I will have close to 40 deer heads in my house!!! Only the biggest will get the full head and shoulder mount...the rest will get the European mount.

One of the best mounts that I can think of is one that my father and I share. We both shot fairly young bucks within days of eachother. My dads buck had a broken jaw basket racked 8 point. Mine was a large spike (ten inch spikes each side). We had the deer mounted with my deer's cape and my father's deer's antlers. Some day I will be very proud to hang that deer on my wall. It's not the size that matters…
