I got a buck!!! Its a small 8 but its my first deer!!! It was about 25-30 yards away and ran 20-25 yards and crashed into a big tangle of thorns. Also how do you get it cleaned up to mount it?

Congratulations first deer and a buck can't beat that. Once again if you were close I would help you with learning how to get it taken care of.

Congratulations of your first deer! That is fantastic. I would strongly suggest a European mount. Less than $100 and it won't look like "pooh" in 10 years like many mounts do. Save the shoulder mount for that once in a lifetime buck.

Thank you. Those are all "scrub bucks" and Mr. Mark Melby does GREAT work and VERY reasonable. I will never get another shoulder mount ever again, only Mark's European mounts.

Excellent deal. A deer is a trophy no matter what the size. Are you talking skull plate mount, European mount like above, shoulder mount(taxidermist)?
