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.

Huckleberry moose huh? That is awesome. I grew up hunting whitetails around there and have seen a few moose, lots of sign but never a bull like that! Awesome!!!  :drool:

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.
