I feel like if you're worried about getting your buck back with another bucks cape then you need to find a new taxi...I mean i guess accidents do happen though

Oh and this one too


If you want some friendly advice, get a haircut and take a bath. You wouldn't get hassled so much.

Not worried about it just more common than you would think. Not saying they loose it and switch things up... some people arnt the best at caping and well... best just not to break their heart.. lol I wasn't directing it to you in any negative way... just messin

I have several European mounts some horns on a plaque etc, but I only have one shoulder mount and im ok with that. I don't really care to have a bunch of them so I want the few I collect over my life to be special.

I have all of mine mounted that I have killed that I liked. Life size, pedestal, shoulder and euros. House full of them. The ones I liked that I did not kill I have photos of them if I could get them.

Here's my 2007 buck from just south of Uvalde, TX. I have no idea what he actually scored but he's still the best whitetail I have taken. I still toy with the idea of having him scored but I only figure he would be in the 120's.

Not always the taxi, most taxis send capes to a tannery. Never know if a tag comes off etc.


Donate to TX Youth hunting program.... better to donate then to waste it in taxes

I think you will be pleasantly surprised if you score that deer.

I've got a couple of sheds I've played with the idea of getting mounted, but then all I have to do is think about how much my last mount cost me, and cease to play with that idea.

Once i learned that i didn't "NEED" to kill something, and that if i did kill something all the fun stopped and work began, i was a much better hunter.

Without putting a tape to that buck I'd say you are pretty close!
Nice buck, would make a beautiful mount!

I have 5 shoulder mounts and have no regrets on any of them...each has its story which makes it incredibly special. I also have quite a few with just the antlers on the wall and I do not have any of those that I wish I'd have done a shoulder mount on but they to have their special story...it's the reason I've kept them...the memories are awesome...the day I can't remember the stories is the day they become worthless...to me.
