Thank you for that. If I decide to have a deer mounted again, I'm going that route. Talk about bringing back memories.

I was thinking Dodge Dakota but I do see some Ford in the tail lights.

The only taxidermist I know refuses to mount deer dead or pets.

The 12 pack of Miller is a nice touch.

Mounts like the one in question were fairly popular in the '80s in NY. I remember seeing quite a few of them back then.
My heart's in the mountains, my heart is not here. My heart's in the mountains, chasing the deer.

Reminds me of the wild boar that a buddy had mounted by a guy at work who probably had never done anything but a deer head. Not only did he put wrinkles in it's nose like a snarling dog, but he blackened it up with shoe polish or stove black or something that made the mount dirtier on the wall than it was on the hoof. I learned that lesson too when I had a Barbarossa sheep mounted buy a local deer head guy. The mechanical picker pulled out about half of the hair so now "Curly" looks more like a lama with horns. A lifetime is too long to look at a cobble job. Choose your taxidermist carefully.
My other auto is a .45
