ORIGINAL: BarnesX.308 Here's the other one. Total opposite. Young buck with a lot of potential. Not trying to be a smart ass but......what potential?? It's dead, it can't get any better.  |
RE: My buck from 11-17-08
Awesome buck!!! Love that picture of you with him in the field. Looks like it was a great moment.

RE: My buck from 11-17-08
Great looking buck!! Congrats!
IMO - the turn around time from the taxi is a little faster than I would want to see on one of my deer - not that yours looks terrible or anything, not trying to say that.... |

It's dead, it can't get any better. My buddy shot this. He only gets to hunt with us 2 or 3 days a year. This was only his 2nd buck. He is not in the position to pass on 8-pointers. In Illionois, fawns are dropped with 10 point racks and 160" deer are called cull bucks. In Pennsylvania, we have 1,000,000 hunters and hunt a lot of deer that only eat poor quality browse in the vast forrested mountains. An 8-pointer is a good deer for most of us. |

ORIGINAL: zubba Congrats on the buck. Another fast turn around time with poor results unfortunatly. WCL As long as your happy with him, that is what matters. If we point out flaws in your trophy, then you will grow to hate it. |
RE: My buck from 11-17-08
ORIGINAL: BarnesX.308 I paid 400 for it.. I know that is probably at the upper end of the spectrum Here's a couple from him. Check out the bottom jaw of the big 5-pointer. It was an 8 year old deer. Nice detail on the sagging jawls. |
RE: My buck from 11-17-08
ORIGINAL: early in If "we" point out the flaws? Who's we? You and that otherfriggen SMACKED ASSwho calls himself wingchaser lab? I'd like to see some of your "awesome mounts" guys. Put up or shut up!! Guys like you make mewant to puke!![>:] That mount looks just fine. Congrats!;) Alright since he wants the opinions and you do too now. I'll give em. Hope zubbo shows his moutns too cuz they look very nice as well. By no means am I a pro as I have only mounted 11 heads but I do know what looks real. To me mounts should look alive and that buck doesnt looked alive to me..... Eyes are way off Eye lashes should be at a 45 degree angle downwards (those are 90 degree or even pointing up. Some serius drumming issue going on in the throat (drumming, thats just lazy) Arm pit pockets could use some workalmost the entire lower lip line is showing (hould just be a little under the tip of the nose) And for the worst.... The ears. There is no ear but and the earls look like they got chewed on my something. They are also way to pink. Here is a couple finished mounts and in progress mounts I've got going. Not making excusses just stating what I have learned and have changed but I now use a different paint on the noses (they are way to dark) and texture them. And have changed my eye shape setting them smaller cuz I had shrinking problems where they were getting to wide on me once dried. Also I wasnt doing a lower lip onmost of them but am now.I'm no pro yet but for only doing a few heads I think they look pretty alive. If yahave something to proveearlyin why dont ya post some of your work? Finished     Unfinished, still wet in pics, and not getting the same paint scheduel as the previous ones.      |
