Got my buck shoulder mount from last season back recently. Turned out real well, I think.

Not the biggest buck in the woods, but I'm proud of him because he came off my own little property.

Ten big ol' acres - surrounded by 2,500!

As always, it's not how much land, it's where the land is that matters. Beautiful mount Mike.

I'm really proud of it. Done by Gotcher's Taxidermy in Brazoria, turn-around was five months, a little more or less.

That's a darn nice buck for Brazoria County. I love the long brow tines. They look really nice.

Nice one!

I always like the ones that have a good symmetrical rack.

Marty, the best thing is I have seen a couple in my area that make this one look like a baby - just haven't gotten a shot at them yet. Good genes around here from somewhere.

Thanks, Randy. I am especially proud because of the small size of the property - and the fact that it belongs to me. I spend a lot of time and effort maintaining feeders and food plots, hauling water and placing stands - it's not that easy. I am lucky enough to have a large property behind and on one side of me that isn't hunted. I keep wanting to buy a larger property, but this one has been very good to me. Three miles out of town, 20 minutes from my house.
