Hey folks. A little back story on this one....an old man who lived beside my grandpa his whole life passed away a couple months ago. He was a farmer and avid hunter and outdoorsmans his whole life...he was in his mid 90's when he passed and hunted right up until the end. He took many deer, turkey, ducks, etc over the years. He had quite a few old mounts that his family had no need for. They gave quite a few of them to my wife because she is a taxidermist and they thought she could use them for something.
One of them was a nice little six pointer he killed in 1985. He had a shoulder mount done on it and (as was the norm in the 80's) put it on a plaque with all four feet turned upwards.
I saw it in the garage and immediately had a perfect plan for it! It had that little six on it...which in 1985, in this part if the world, was a wall hanger for sure. But I can't put anybody else's kills on my walls because it just doesn't seem right.
I pulled the head off and put a two of my European mounts on the board. I used the feet to hang my 50th anniversary Black Widows on. It came out pretty nice. I'll post pics shortly.
