Default Last years bucks (European Mounts)

I usually keep the last 2-3 years worth of bucks on a wall in my living room and replace them whenever a new fella walks past the wrong tree

This past year just felt different to me somehow.......can't really put my finger on it but it just seems like I have a ton of great memories so I thought I would do something different with my racks.

I had never had a skull mount before and I had 2 bucks to work with so I originally intended to have table top mounts I could move around and not just hang on the wall.........well, my wife liked the way they looked and decided she wanted them hanging by the stove in our family room.

Anyways........I like the way they came out........and flesh eating beetles are just cool

Nice looking setup, atlasman. I like the stove and the stone work behind the fireplace.... Very nice.

Oh, and what kind of animal do you have mounted on the rug, atlasman? It looks exotic!

The ever elusive Sh1t-zu........the rarest and most treasured of all trophies

My dog's go into a coma when that stove fires up.


I had the mounts done by a guy I know........he is really cool dude and I think he did a good job. I sent him 6 heads from friends and family through referrals.

Those beetles stink and they have tight tollerances for cold and moisture. No thanks.....I'll just drop off and pick up
