    My mount I got in remembrance of my dad who passed away in October. He raised pheasants for 10 years. These are from his last batch.

    That is an awesome way to remember your father! I pray I don't have to for a long time, but I've already planned on mounting the buck I take following my dad's passing in remembrance of the man whom taught me so much!

    Love this! Great mounting job as well!

    Very cool Luke, what a great way to have a memory of your father, I'm sure that mount will be passed down for generations to come.
