    I dont post much on this site but read it everyday, i thought i would share my buck that i killed on the last drive on the 1st sunday of Iowa’s 2nd shotgun season. It came out of a thicket and i shot at him 3 times, hitting him on the third. Whats weird was he didnt move after the first two shots. I just kept raising the cross-hairs on the scope. He was at 138 yards. I green scored him at 148 1/4 gross. Debated on a full mount but money is tight, decided on a euro mount. Anybody have a good way to do a euro mount?

    Nice buck. You can always mount later, with another cape if you’d like !!! I figure you will later !!! Very nice mass.

    Great buck, man that has to go on the wall. Give yourself an early Christmas gift, besides taxidermists usually only require a deposit of half the price, you have months to save when you pick it up! Nice job!

    Do the full mount. You’ll regret it if you don’t. You should only need a deposit to get it in the door and started. You’ll have until this next summer to save to pay for it.
