New one for the wall!!
« on: April 26, 2011, 04:41:56 PM »
 My new wall piece came in last week. Im really happy with how it came out! I shoot the little guy from about 20 feet away with a 3 1/2 12ga. So, obviously it was pretty torn up. But seeing that it was my first banded teal, I had to get it mounted. I couldn't have asked for more!

Great looking mount-it looks killer on the wall.  I would love to have a GWT and a Cinnamon in the manroom at my place.

Great looking GWT! I've never thought about getting one mounted but I'm not sure why I haven't  :bash:
Everyone shoots three times per bird, right?

Looks good.  I think you had a several to mount two seasons ago.  How did those ones go as well.

The GW and Woodie were the only ones I decided to mount. I should have got my pintail and double banded mallard mounted but decided to put the jewelry on the lanyard. As long as Im alive, I hope every year I get at least one for the wall... ;)

Nice looking mount.
I think the GWT is one of the prettiest of waterfowl and right up there with the woody.
