Robert, I really enjoyed your thread and think the mount looks exceptionally well. I agree with your assessment of the deer herds management results. I have seen similar results here in VA. Seems more and more people are voluntarily letting young deer walk and the increased doe harvest has allowed bucks more feed and space. Though not popular with the meat hunting crowd, the bucks being tagged now have shown quite a bit of improvement in body weight and antler development. Anyhow, congrats on a successful hunt. Steve
