Title: Saskatchewan Whitetail - Where to Hang?
Post by: sticky on March 25, 2018, 12:27:29 PM: Moving into a new house soon. Any ideas on what room it should be hung. House has two bedrooms, one office/bedroom, kitchen that opens into dining room. I’d like to eventually would like to build a gun room/man cave where I could hang it but that may be a few years down the road.

It scored 174 4/8. Measured by an old pro with credentials.

Here’s a pic:

Post by: JL on March 26, 2018, 08:55:09 PM: GREAT Buck. Unfortunately, I think saying he didn't capture the neck is an understatement. Was it done in WA? Something you could do is get one of these wood prints done with your photo (I like them in sepia or black and white) and hang or place next to the mount.

I'd go living room
