... went for a walk back behind the house where carcasses are returned to Mother Earth ... and turns out I had done some European mounts on these majestic whitetail bucks

... I plan to honor their spirit by displaying them on this here stump

Those 11 pointers are kind of spooky but cool looking done that way. I can see now why you put in the huge amount of resources you do to harvest them..

Very nice skulls. Their momma can visit them at that stump and remember their first year of life.

Actually I’d rather someone shoot a pile of those and save the 3.5yr olds and older.

Always thought it would be cool to do a european mount on a button buck too.


I see some people actually pay for that service Savell. If you wanted a few extra pesos you could offer to throw some of other people's deer heads out in the back 40 for say $200 ea.

Savell if you run out of T bones for flat sets those little goobers might work

I really like that natural looking patina you applied.
