Shot this deer over 15 years ago. Mount got left in sun and faded real bad. Have had it hanging in that condition and just couldn't take it anymore. I've been trying for years to figure out how to try and restore and revive my old mounts and sheds. I'm happy with how it turned out. Let me know what you guys think.

Never been to a camping world. I prefer Dick's to be honest.

Really freshened it up. One unique set of horns. What did you use?

In the end, it's not the years in your life that count, it's the life in your years.

Thanks guys. It's a combination of wood stains. I've seen some in the past that didn't turn out well so I used sheds to practice on til I found that perfect combination. I'll post some better pics of him.
