34" 2014 4x3 Washington muley mount
« on: April 23, 2015, 10:49:03 AM »
Posting for a friend, not my deer!  :)    He recently finished mounting his 2014 muzzleloader general tag muley.  34" wide, 26.5" inside.  Bases on both sides were 8".  These reduced pictures don't do it justice, full size they look way better!

Pfft.  Crabby back fork, not symmetrical.  Last day shooter, but only if close to the road.   :chuckle:




Seriously, awesome specimen of a Washington buck!!  Congrats to hunter, mount looks incredible.

 :yeah:
Look at that roman nose. Really dig the dark blaze on his chest too.  I would not care a lick what he scores - that is one impressive animal.

Skillet - the hunter and the taxidermist is one and the same.   He does really great work!   :tup:

Skookum - I'm afraid the story is much less exciting than the results.  I think if I recall correctly his hunt was over within an hour of opening day.  No field pics as his camera battery was dead!  >:(   These are also his pictures.   I'll try and get some more pics of my own ! 

Kball - Ok he just told me the deer was over 8.5 yrs, aging tool only went that far.

What GMU was it taken? Aren't too many places left for a deer to get 8.5+ years old.

GMU?  Heck, as long as were asking I'd like the GPS Coordinates of the kill site.  :chuckle:

" 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
