Here is my BTD deer taken 11/25/11. I really like the way he did it!

Thank you for the kind words. It was guestimated at just below 125 inches, like 124 5/8?? . That is the original cape. The guy is just learning. He thought the neck was a little small. I think it is fine, the deer was small bodied.

Looks good, I like the Texas in the back ground. Have actually thought about doing that with my boys euro mount I am working on.

Just got a text from the guy that mounted this deer. He said the jaw bone indicated a 3 1/2 year old buck.

If I send my neighbors a text and ask them to give me feedback on my lawn and plant rye into a giant dong pattern, I'm probably going to get some less than positive feedback. Same goes here.

Love the Texas mount. I'm having dad's mounted with a pedestal. I wonder how that would look behind it.

Thanks for all the kind words! This is my best to date and a nice East Texas deer. It was made even better when I received game pics of this deer over the last year.
I think the board could be a bit smaller and still look good. Not complaining, just trying to figure out where to hang him..
