Can you guys post some pics of euro mounts, my brother has many but would like to see some different ways others have done theirs. All mine are shoulder mounts.

Here is my '05 archery buck. As soon as get my 06 buck done I will post it as well. I am going to mount it on a shed on the wall.

I love that set up, might have to steal that idea.

YA, that looks really cool!

huntnphool · « **Reply #6 on:** December 18, 2007, 05:26:47 PM »

has anyone ever just used a shed to mount it to rather than a plaque?

Houndhunter · « **Reply #7 on:** December 18, 2007, 06:50:04 PM »

There is a really cool pic of a euro mount on a shed. I have been looking for it, but can't remember what topic it was under.

wastickslinger · « **Reply #9 on:** December 18, 2007, 07:13:09 PM »

You will see one mounted on a shed in about 2 weeks. I will post when it is done.

Heres one I mounted to a shed.

huntnphool · « **Reply #11 on:** December 18, 2007, 10:57:37 PM »

very nice Ironhead, do you have a side view? How did you mount it to it?

wastickslinger · « **Reply #12 on:** December 18, 2007, 11:13:54 PM »

I am curious as to how you attached it as well.

I was thinking about taking a large elk shed and putting two euro skulls on it. Kinda off set, one higher than the other. Angle the horn on the wall. Just a thought. I might play with it.

I drilled 2 holes in the shed then put some wood in the nasal cavity for backing, to run 2 - 1 5/8" sheetrock screws through the skull into. Takes about 5 minutes to mount the shed. I have also seen guys epoxy wire into the bottom of the skull and then drill holes in shed to attatch the wire to.

You know me nothing fancy here, I used left over material from building my fence. I suppose a guy could take a router to the edges if they wanted, but to me just a rough look for a display is fine.

Thanks Ironhead. I was going to try wire first but I like your idea.

Heres one section of euro mounts we have at our shop.

This one here is my first mule deer.

Some of them have had more time spent on them than others. We generally just boil out the skull, then paint bleach on the skull with a paintbrush until they get as white as you want to get it.

LongTatLaw · « **Reply #20 on:** March 10, 2008, 10:34:31 PM »

wife named it..not me...lol

trophy? nope
animal? nope
hunting? nope

DEAD ROOM...thats it!!

LongTatLaw · « **Reply #21 on:** March 24, 2008, 11:06:43 PM »

When ya thought the horse pic was the strangest euro skull work... heres one i "DUG UP"

Im not a serial killer or anything but these are the real deal. I lived in Greece for almost a year a they do not have the same respect for the remains of the dead. They put you in the ground...two years later rent starts and if the family dont pay they dig up the ones... let em dry and then toss em in a leaf bag to go out with the monday morning trash...

these bones were pulled out of a hefty bag for the pic then replaced... they never made it into the "DEAD ROOM"!!

and yes, I know theres a good chance Im going to hell!

mossback91 · « **Reply #22 on:** March 24, 2008, 11:10:37 PM »

Now thats what I call a "twisted" hobby

LongTatLaw · « **Reply #23 on:** March 24, 2008, 11:15:49 PM »

true true!

I actually called customs and asked since they consider it trash could I keep some...the Greeks didnt give a rats arse but the US said no bringing human remains home... jerks!

LongTatLaw · « **Reply #24 on:** March 25, 2008, 12:01:29 AM »
