Very cool Randy.   :thumbsup:
The old order is passing. Swiftly receding into memory are the days of strong, earnest men who followed an atavistic yearning to pit their skills against wild animals.

Ah that one is too big and tough, you'll have to go back and get a smaller one Randy. But seriously, that is a fine elk with the bow. Hat's off.

That is a GREAT pedestal shoulder mount of that 6 x 7 bull!

Love those curly brow tines!

Would you mind tellin' us who did the awesome taxidermy and how long it took?

Your 2009 hunting season will be a humdinger if you outdo yourself on that specimen.  Have a good one!
