I don’t know how old he was as his teeth were too worn to age by a chart. I ground all the meat up as he was really tough. He also had a lot of muscle atrophy in his hind quarters. When I walked up on him I thought he was one of the ugliest deer I had ever seen. His head was unique, as it was short and wide and looked more like a rams head.

Beautiful buck and mount.

Mount turned out awesome, have one with very similar genetics on my wall as well, just a few years younger.

Rainier Taxidermy. It was a late season buck and not what I expected. Few deer around, low to mid forties at night and pushing sixty degrees during the day. I found him and a bigger framed heavier buck in a canyon with some does. Sat on my duff for days until he slipped up. Don’t really like road hunting, so I pick spots I think are Bucky and stand hunt with still hunting mixed in.
