Found this guy this morning while hiking around a friends' property. He was with two 4pts and two cows. I heard no bugles.

I think he looks pretty cool.  Be a great unusual looking mount.

Great pictures by the way.  The clarity is awesome!

Kinda looks like he has a messed up skull plate. Still cool though.
