The mount has been done for a year. The pedestal finally arrived today. (the delay was mostly due to my indecision  ) ![[Linked Image]](http://i1185.photobucket.com/albums/z345/joan4321/SK_DEER/IMG_3916_skPED_zps3xrjv4uy.jpg) Some of you may recall the deer - taken in northern MN a couple of seasons back while hunting with my good friend and fire member, handwerk. Pretty happy with the end product.

Guess your indecision paid off. That would be a first.  Thanks all. My wife doesn't exactly share the same enthusiasm. *grins*

Man what a buck, and what a classy representation. Simply fantastic!
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

One of the best i've seen. Good job.

Scott, that thing looks spectacular! You keep hunting hard like you've done and one day you'll get a big one!
