Better Pic of My 2003 Buck
 
Here is a better pic of the buck I shot with my rifle this year. I had posted a pic previously, but the people that saw it in real life said it didnt do the deer justice. Maybe this one would help.

Great Rack!!! Are you only doing the European skull mount? That beast deserves the full shoulder.

I would have atleast left the skull in tact for a european mount. Nice rack I'm with the others love non-typicals like that.

how could he do a european mount if he already capped it? its a nice deer but the pics would of been better if they were of the whole deer in the woods.

I echo your thoughts o2. I would have loved to see the entire deer. He must have been a bruiser. What did he score?

You know it wouldn't be entirely impossible to create a european mount. If he still had the skull? Most of my european mounts have been painted or felted. He could easily glue the cap back to the skull and bondo the seam. Once that was done he could felt the skull! Two of my european mounts have ben painted with a suade tan, one was painted with a rust wash, my next one will be felted with loose felt in a brown color similar to what a friend of mine has.

But I guess he could only do it if he had the skull.

Not sure of score yet, probably about 160. I am having a full shoulder mount. The pics in the woods didnt turn out :(

THat is a great nontypical! Nontypicals are the best looking racks on the planet!

I don't think this bruiser is only going 160closer to 175.

congrats and where did you get him?
