So nice to mount my own trophy, "Mr. Brown".

You might know the feeling. Working on everyone else's nice bucks and wishing you had one of your own. Wishing came true for me last fall ! It was really a pleasure to work on my own trophy last week. My huntin' buddy called him "Mr. Brown". Feel free to critique. I'm still trying, but I've yet to mount the perfect buck........Thanks, John

 

Thanks ya'll. Eyes are Van Dyke's Natural eyes, medium.............John

 

I've mistaken, they are Van Dykes' Bio Optic. I like them because the pupil stands out a little more...........John

 

"my own stuff" is actually why I started doing taxidermy. Sometimes you just have to make your stuff top priority.Although I can see this being an issue if taxidermy is your main vocation.............John
