He actually had one in his shop that he was modifying exactly as I wanted, that he had just finished up, so it worked out perfect. It is going to be interesting to see the finished product, this deer had neck measurements of 23" at the base of the head, and a 27" swell measurement 3" below that.

Here is how I got mine mounted. Last edited by pullit; 01/17/23. I may not be smart but I can lift heavy objects I have a shotgun so I have no need for a 30-06.....

If I figured I'd need a pose to make him look bigger then he's not shoulder mount worthy, even if he's cool. The cool ones are the ones people want to hold and look at different angles anyway, euro is perfect for that. Just my .02. He's pretty neat and unique for sure! Beware of any old man in a profession where one usually dies young. Calm seas don't make sailors.
