« on: November 17, 2009, 06:24:04 PM »

My deer.

I've hunted almost everyday of my life, the rest have been wasted.

Here is my Idaho Whitey.

By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

The skull is actually one of the synthetic skulls.  I cut it for a traditional mount before I decided I wanted it as a European so I bought one of the kits and had the horns put into it. Then painted it all white and I believe it is a gloss white and that is why it is shiny.

wastickslinger ....  Thank you so much for posting that.  I absolutely love that look and I am thinking that is what I want for my next mount.  Where did you get the wood stand if you don't mind me asking?

Dad made me a few(one stained dark and one light). I told him he needs to patten it and sell them. I could take orders.  :chuckle:
