I re did a skull cap of my dads first bull for him on his last birth and dug up old pics of his camp and from the day he harvested it. I personally really like the way it turned out, I think it's cool to go up to it and see the pictures from those days and I know it means a lot more to my dad being able to look at those memories right there every time! He also really likes it. I'm sure you could make a plaque with a skull hooker deal on it if it's something you're interested in, just an idea!
That turned out awesome!

You could always wrap a cape around it like it deserves!  :yike:
  :chuckle:  It won't fit in my house  :'(
pedestal mount in place of the kitchen table! Problem solved.

I really think this is the best idea..

The pack idea is a good one but unfortunately Aaron's Mystery Ranch Longbow was damaged beyond salvaging in the explosion. 

Tschaefer, if you wouldn't mind posting up some info on where you had that made or pm me.  Thanks man!  Some really fantastic ideas so far though so keep em coming  :tup:

I think the pack frame mount would be really cool with the skull cap wrapped in a American flag .
My wife told me that I hunt way more than I did when we first got married. I said yeah I know isn't it great !

That's what I was thinking. I stumbled across 2 of them not that long ago for cheap. Wish I'd bought them.

Do you have his folded flag? Might be a little too much but  :dunno:

Ok so Coop turned me onto this dude and this stuff is super cool!  How sweet would the WA cutout covered with the stars and stripes with photos inlaid on there or something.

I like that a lot.
:fire.:

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield
