    A local taxidermist mounted him for cheap to use as advertising in my dad's archery shop. The dude put my mature buck on a friggin yearling doe form and let all the hair slip. I still advertise for him to this day...go to Rusty's Taxidermy in Pine, Arizona for a mount like this! 20180821_225702.jpg

    I bet a good taxi could move the rack to another form

    I’m going to try and utilize OnX and find another place to hunt on my free time. I didn’t have to over the summer

    OnX is awesome. Perfect for collecting scouting information, treestand placement and finding landowners. I use it almost daily

    I am currently sitting in Detroit to catch a plane to Alpena Michigan for a family function, it is 50 degrees here.....god I wish I could hunt my grandfathers land but not season yet. Also, it is going to be 45 degrees Saturday morning back home so I am missing a good morning hunt opportunity:bigcry:

    Well boys I'm alive. Its was very easy and I already have 20/25 vision! And trust me I had Wall eye vision preop. Things are still a little blurry and I don't think I'll be able to hunt opening week but this is shaping up to be the best decision I've ever made!

    Just messing with you, glad your surgery went well.

    I’ve heard you blink a lot the first few days and then everything is good. I’ve thought of getting it done myself someday.
