Great job on that buck!  I assume it's too late to do a full shoulder mount on him.  Too bad, since he's such a great first deer and a memory you'll have the rest of your life.  Euro mounts are very cool, but if it were me and I could scrape up the money after tuition was paid........

Love the dark rack, way to get it done with a bow.  I am thinking 120"-123" gross, maybe 4" under for net.  Great deer for sure.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Thanks a lot guys and yah I am looking forward to seeing those dark horns on a nice white European mount. And like most of you have said ill be dropping modern for good and sticking with archery. I love the challenge and don't really care if i get a deer. Just getting one with a bow is so rewarding. haha I am for sure addicted to archery hunting now :chuckle:

Around 120 net.  Heck of a first buck, congrats!
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

Definitely a nice rack; love the dark horned ones. I'd say about 120-130. Great trophy no matter what.

I already guessed and it is a great buck.  I hope you are going to have it scored and come back on and update us what the actual score ends up being.
