Very very nice looking mount.  Congrats to your wife.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.
You are never to old to learn something stupid.

Good looking mount.  I bet that was a chore to get it hung up that high on the wall.

Great looking bull and the mount looks great. 

Looks like he got the flash bulb just before the barrel flash too.

Thanks for the compliments! It was fun getting him up there!!! I don't think I have ever hit the screw head with the bracket on the first try!!!
He ended up Net 143 and some change. Grossed 152 and change.

awesome bull.
:fire.:

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield
