That's a beautiful buck and a great deer. Congrats on your first now your hooked. You'll never forget that
Great buck public land, private land and on the moon! Great deer brother, congrats to you are in order!
Go with the skull mount man.They are a lot less maintenance ,last longer ,and they take up less space. Plus in my personal opinion I think they look better ,and you can get you're skulls dyed with all kinds of cool camo patterns or just about anything else.
Now that's a trophy regardless of where you killed him, but on public land makes it even sweeter! Congrats.
