    I was thinking one night about how to display one of the european/skull mounts I'd done for myself... I started looking at the previous set of sheds from this same buck from the year before. SO I decided this would look ok. It was hard to drill a hole in it but I think it was worth it! Has anyone ever seen this display method before? Let me know what you guys think!:tu:

    I just pre-drilled a hole through the shed and into the back of the skull. Just in one spot. Then, carefully put the screw in so you dont crack the skull. I also used a countersink bit so you cant see the screw head.

    Thanks for the feedback guys! I'm pretty excited cause since I've done this I've had guys ask me to do it for their euromounts that I've done for them. I tell them they have to bring me the sheds though... Not getting rid of any of mine any time soon!;)
