He wanted to be a 4x4 but didn't split on the top left. 105 yards, 7RM, 150g BT over 63.0g H4350. My first attempt at a semi-European mount is decent. I simmered the skull too long causing the snout bones to separate a little. I hope to perfect the process on that 5x5 next year!

Got me a nice 4x4 and my pard from Texas got a 3x3 back in Oct. here in northen AZ. His was 75yd's. laying down. I got mine three days later at 115 yd's standing lookn at me. We both used Barnes VOR-TX 30-06 180gr. Tipped Tsx Bt.ammo. He's never got a Muley befor. Sure makes you feel good after a hard hunt and you get a nice one. Thanks again for showing your deer. SEMPER FI.
