Yes Sir. He's a very deserving individual.

That head is now in my custody. When they dropped the tail gate, first thing I said was "Man, that's gonna make a GREAT Euro but would also make for a great shoulder mount if caped out with the battle scars".

He and his wife instantly looked at each other which obviously told me this was already a topic of discussion between them. None of my business, I'll zip it. They are frugal people, trying to plan for the future with two young boys. He said a shoulder mount was too much money.

His biggest buck ever, and has 17 points. Yes LF deer. There's a lot of trash on this deer that you can't see from the pic. Several long stickers behind the bases.

Very cool deer, the biggest that combat Marine has ever killed. I've never done a Euro of a buck with velvet still on the antlers. Hope I don't screw it up.

Head was bigger in person.

Awesome , congratulations !

Every time I see this thread title, I think of the very valuable bumper dumper I won at a DU banquet. It's the reason Shotsie learned to drive a vehicle.

Great buck for sure

Euro? What does it take to get a shoulder mount on your place?
