Got my mount back today OT
« on: August 02, 2007, 10:55:52 AM »
Missed a chance with the 45/70 he was way to far to shoot. Lucked up two weeks later and took him with 300mag. Good size for our lease in south Miss.. 198 lbs. on certified scales.

That's a nice one, worthy of the cost of mounting. ;)

thanks for sharing,

That's a great looking mount, your taxidermist did a good job.  Congrats on a fine buck.

Thanks to all for the compliments,at my age I don't know if I'll get another one this good. I hunted a cut-over next to a 400 acre field for four straight days before he messed up and I got a 200yd shot.
thanks Ten Ring
