Title: Monster Pedestall Elk Mount Done ! (Charlies Taxidermy)
Post by: bucklucky on September 15, 2010, 12:18:05 PM: Thought I would post up some pictures of Ol' Grumpy. A Big Ol' Washington bull killed with archery gear back in '07. Its hard to take good pictures indoors . If I get a chance and help I will take it outside for some better pics. Anyway , enjoy . I beleive the customer is going to be back from AK here shortly so I wont get to enjoy this outstanding trophy for much longer . This bull has some exceptional Main Beam, if I remember right 62 and almost 60 :yike: Grossed 389, netted like 367.

Post by: MuleySniper on September 16, 2010, 03:36:26 PM: Thanks! Speaking of.... maybe towards the end of next week I can bring down that pedestal to ya and shoot the breeze for a bit. Heck, I might even stick a good bull tomorrow or Saturday then I'll have an even better reason to come down :chuckle:

Post by: Craig on September 17, 2010, 02:36:56 PM: Great looking mount. How tall is the overall hight? would a mount like that fit in a room with 8' ceilings?

Hey Craig, that mount is about 8'4" but the base can be made to the correct height . It also depends on the rack going on the mount. I did a 396 bull that was under 8 ft.
