Default my taxi gave me an early gift ( mulie buck )

Well I got the call lastnight to come pick up my mulie buck .. After debating weather I should go with a wall mount or with a pedistall mount , I decided that the chances of me harvesting a buck of this caliber again was going to be tough to beat , so this is what I decided on !!!

Hope everyone has a safe and happy holidays !!!
Merry christmas

Mamba ,

Great mount, very nice!

Gramps, I have a mulie in velvet mount from about 1994, and it still looks as good as it did newly mounted.

That looks great! X2 on the Barnboard.

Curious. What day did you get him? Was his velvet starting to strip?

Yeah it was just starting to strip the velvet off , and some was also peeled off when were trying to get him outta the field .. But my taxidermist did a great job of perserving it and taking great care of it ..shot Sept 09 /2008mulie5.jpg
