    I don't use the word "AWESOME" very often, as it is extremely over-used. However in this case, that is an understatement. Well done, SIR!!! :clap:

    Thank you everyone! I am truly blessed to take such a magnificent animal!

    I just got back from picking up the rack from taxidermist. I'm going to keep the antlers til he is ready to mount. Tell you what, everytime I look at it I'm still in shock!

    I haven't picked a mount yet, cant decide. I have some time, the taxi said I don't need to pick till he gets the hide back from the tannery. I am going to do a wall pedestal, just cant decide on pose.

    Thanks everyone!

    It's been 30 days and in another month I will be able to get him scored. There is a chance that he will be in the top 10 non typical bow kills in MD. Can't wait to find out! Either way it's my once-in-a-lifetime buck and couldn't be happier! I will post back in here when I get it officially scored.

    Haha, You do get a fear that someone will try to track you from the pics. I was paranoid when I first found him and didn't show many people, and definitely didn't post pics on here before. I didn't want to jinx my self!
