That buck is awesome. I have one of my Dads BT racks, 3 pt, not really big, but it has a 1978 tag on it too! Great work
My Dad always said, " Get a bigger hammer "

When the old mount fell off of the wall and destroyed the cape, eyeball, and the skull cap my dad was pretty upset. I took it to you and you did a perfect job. My dad is extremely pleased with it. We can't stop staring at it. I appreciate your work and the details you put into it. I especially like how you added the 70s era Schmidt cans we found last year near where he shot him.

Thank you everyone for the compliments


When the old mount fell off of the wall and destroyed the cape, eyeball, and the skull cap my dad was pretty upset. I took it to you and you did a perfect job. My dad is extremely pleased with it.

I'm really glad that your Mom and Dad liked the mount. You and I put quite a bit of effort into making sure that he turned out well!
