Reading this from WY when and where I have connection.  Gives me inspiration try dig deeper and try harder.  Have had the pleasure of meeting some of the crew.  Truly inspiring.  Thanks for sharing and thanks for your families sacrifice.

Wow what a thread....absolutely great write-up karl. Best thread of the year...thanks for bringing us along with this epic adventure! Your brother would be proud of you and he was with you watching this whole thing unfold. Congrats again on a magnificent bull of a lifetime!

Sorry I missed this all. For some reason I couldn't log in for the last couple months. Did some updates and I'm back. Great story and tribute. Thanks for sharing this. You should be proud. Congrats on a great bull. You are very deserving of it with all the hard work you guys put in. Maybe I will run into you again in Goldendale next spring. I think I have 2 out of the last 3 years.

Ok so now that my season is over and I am catching back up on things, I need to figure out a cool way to mount this euro.  Most of you guys are way more imaginative, creative, crafty, etc. than I am so I figured I'd pick some brains for some good ideas.  I want to do something more than just the standard van dykes plaque or skull hanger.  Maybe something patriotic?  Somber?  Honorable?  Not sure really.  One thing I am certain of though is I'm not a big fan of the hydro dipped skulls.  Just not my thing.  So lets here some ideas!  I'm slow and unimaginative though so visuals are cool

You could always wrap a cape around it like it deserves!

A pallet wood American Flag plaque that you mount the skull to might look good.

dude you rock.... Maybe have a plaque with a picture of you and Aaron with an American flag and some kind of dedication from you to him. And maybe you Get Sum group. That would just be the best.

You could hydro dip it red, white, blue, and silver. Would look good with the arrow next to it.
