(UPDATED PICTURES)My 2015 Buck is finished

Post by Tennessee Lead »

Daddy has my deer finished up.
All dried and painted. Couldn't be any happier with how he turned out.
That's the pose he was in when I shot him. He had just rubbed a cedar and began to walk away when I stopped him. I've still got to build a pedestal for him to be attached to the wall.

That's a beautiful buck buddy! I try to have a mount done in the position that the buck was taken too. Helps remembering the details of the hunt each time I look at them.

Looks really nice!

Dad fixed up a platform for me to hang him on the wall.
Just need to cover up the bolts.
Can't wait to bring him home!

He also got my Brother's Iowa Bow kill beast finished up.
They built a floor pedestal from Barnwood and rusty tin roofing.
He had a picture with him and the buck printed on the tin.

Thanks everyone
Both forms are McKenzie 6900 floor pedestals
I had him to convert mine into a wall mount because I don't have much floor space and a coming 2 year old lol
