What's your preference?  Euros are growing on me :twocents:. If someone knows how to rotate the pic that would be cool :tup:

I have a ton of Euros and prefer them.  Shoulder mounts are nice but take up way too much space.

I like both equally and believe both have a place on my trophy wall.  If it is worthy of a shoulder it gets a sholder....if not it gets a euro.   :tup: :tup:

Thank you, if you send me a PM ill send you the directions, it's really simple and 100 times safer than stronger peroxides. Also less harmful on the bone.

So this is a good example of mounts and euros. I have a small house but a huge shop so the wife doesn't allow the mounts inside the house. Built an office in the shop for the mounts. I guess I favor euros now because I always think I will kill the trophy of a life time and have it mounted :chuckle:  I have a buddy who is a hunting fool and mounts everything and now he is middle aged and has no where to put his trophies and seems to better at least one of them every two years.

I like like the euros a lot, I also agree with jrebel.  I had way too many shoulder mounts done in the past, now I have little room for anything else.

So far I've gone euro mount on everything I've harvested. Just like the look of the skulls. Next deer/elk I'm lucky enough to harvest is getting a shoulder mount. I don't even care about size.

I also prefer Euros because I can do them myself at very little cost and get professional (usually better) results.

I really like a nicely done euro on a cool rustic wood backing.. although I love the look of a nice mix of both in a trophy room. I think first trophy for sure should be shoulder mounted as that's usually everyone's top fondest memory :)

For all of you that choose to go Euro mount, check this company called Skull-hookers.. They make these cool wall mounts for them..
