I became aware of Charlie Smith when in a trophy room, and the mounts I keyed on were not the monsters this guy had.  Just saying.
Charlie's artistry is something I really had a desire to include among the few mounts I have kept for my family's own enjoyment.  
We are going to have a Charlie Smith blacktail mount soon to hang up in our home and we couldn't be happier that it has been a long wait.  We know it is going to be so over the top a great mount because Charlie has taken his sweet time on every one that came before ours.  
I just love to see Charlie's mounts come out because it adds to the excitement knowing that we are one closer to posting a picture of ours.
