    I got my buck from October 1st back and on the wall. Pictures don’t do the mount justice. The early season cape is gorgeous. Muscle definition is perfect and not overdone.

    Great looking mount on a beautiful buck! That's a heck of a drop tine on that other buck. :tu:

    I killed that one back in 2009 in North Carolina. He only scores like 113" but he was way too cool not to shoot.

    HANG ON...you are friends with a guy everyone knows is a HUGE sucker for giant basic 3x3 (with brows) and here you have had one with a stinking drop as well!! NO offense to the Iowa deer (mount and deer is freaking awesome) but that isn't the deer that caught my eye!

    That one wasn't ready yet. Bugs got it before it was ripe.
