I was super proud of this guy, not because of antler size (obviously) but because it was the hardest stalk i ever made on an animal. My stand was 150 yards away from where he bedded down. The stalk took me 2 hours in the rain, after slowly moving my stand around to the back of the tree so i could discretely climb down. I ended getting to within 8 yards to make my shot. Fortunately mother nature cooperated with heavy rain and the wind stayed in the face. I told the taxidermist to "have fun". It has wolf teeth and crocodile eyes!!! Gonna be quite the conversation piece.

the sad thing is.................it actually looks better than some that guys really think look good when they get them back.
It's less offensive to tell a hunter his baby is ugly than it is to tell him his taxidermist screwed up his mount.
