Here in Florida,  I get a few skulls that score over 135.  But most people mount them.
The owner of this monster killed up north,  Threw it in an ant pile.  Mice ate the tips of the tines.

I just don't understand people.  This could be the largest, I ever get to clean,  and it was
mistreated so much.  Just glad it whitened up to my standards.

Spent my whole life lookin' back
 Not lookin' ahead to see
 Trying to keep my feet on track
 Doin' what was expected of me
 Kick my shoes off so they can't trace me
 Leave no forwarding address
 Before they all drive me crazy
 And I leave 'em all in a bloody mess

Ive had a bunch of 180-200 inch muleys come in this year, with the economy its hard for some to justify spending the money to mount it right now

I had a 163 whitetail 8 point in, guy left it out in the yard and it got bleached white.  It doesnt really botther me, as long as they pay.  Its kinda nice to get your hands on the big ones every now and then, but dinks pay as much as monsters.  Personaly I like the BIG bears and cats though, and their skulls almost always make their way to a bug cleaner.

Skull looks good by the way. 

Here is a 5 point bull, I know its only a 5 point.....   ONLY a 5 point, thats another 5 point in front of it for reference.  I live in elk country and havent seen many in my life that size.  But the guy wanted a euro, some just like the look of bone I guess.

No,  it looked BAD,  Of course I knew I could fix, and repair the antlers. 
I told him,  I was pretty sure,  I could fix the damage he had already caused.  Tends to quite them down a little.
