Yeah Axel....that would be cool huh?

Especially if there was a walk through room to get to my office where the butt would be seen 1st.

Here's my best five. All with trad bows. Three of them with osage selfbows I made. I work part-time at Big River Taxidermy in Lansing,Ia, so I get to work on my own deer. Last years buck I killed the second week of Nov and had on the wall right after Xmas. There's a bunch of great looking mounts on this post fella's!!

Thomas...it was the 1st morning of a TX Sweat Hunt....there were 30 of them in that herd and all but 3 had already walked right by me...one of the 3 was the biggest, and I wasn't going to shoot any of them but the biggest...it was all or nothing.  One of the little ones that had walked by me winded me and started spitting... the 3 facing me turned to leave and I made one of my most memorable shots.

Turned out to be the biggest one I saw all week.

Tom Phillips got one of the others while I was field dressing mine....great memories from that mount, and yes, it does look good, Curt mounted it so what do you expect    ;)   ....thanks.

Great to hear Curt.....same pose only reversed...Book Mount Solana 10 pointers to go along with my Book Mount hogs (one at Ray's and one from Cohutta)

Mike....those are some of my most memorable arrows, and it is nice to pull one off and relive the hunt as well.

Here is one . I didn't kill him in 08' but I did re-mount him in 08' I killed him in 1985. My best whitetail to date. I have re-done the mount 4-5 times over the years.
