My First Buck
 
1 Attachment(s)
Hey guys here is my first buck. I mounted him myself, its a fake skull and my dad made the plaque.

What do y'all think?

Nice idea on the plaque.

Looks great. I like the idea of using the state for the plaque.

Awesome buck man!
My first was a 4 pointer.
But did you have to cut the antlers off the skull plate?
Next time do a real euro and save yourself some money.
But it looks 110% up on the wall :)
I don't have plaques for any of my euros, but yours looks so purdy up there I might have to get some. I like the angle it gives it.

Great job...love the plaque. Does he make those commercially or was that a single shot?

Nice buck. I've done a few skull mounts myself. They are a lot of work and you have to be careful not to over boil them but they come out nice. If I get another decent buck, I think I'll try your route. Just to see the difference.

Congrats! Good job!

Nice buck! I have done several euro mounts. How do the antlers mount to the fake skull tho? Looks good.

Looks good and well done. Can you share some tips and how your dad did it? I am planning to make one for my room.
