For a deer shoulder mount, I'd have a hard time going over $500. I understand that there are masters of their craft out there and you can get what you pay for. To me the moment and the memory means a lot more than the money, but I still have my limits. My taxidermist charges me $350 for a shoulder mount. I am a definite stickler for detail, extremely meticulous and picky and I couldn't be happier with what I get! He does beautiful work!

They're great! I've always been sceptical about products and wasn't sure about the Thermacell but figured it was worth a try. So far I've been very happy with it. I live in Minnesota where the mosquito might as well be the state bird. In my experience it doesn't completely eradicate all of the bugs, but I didn't expect it to. They definitely help! I'm excited about trying it this fall during the rut. You can buy blank pads and put scent on them like doe in estrous or whatever. Supposedly it helps disperse the scent and it keeps it from freezing which would be great if it works! Especially since where we hunt, by the time the rut rolls around everything freezes.

Hi there, I'm looking at getting a new revolver and was interested in a little input. I want a good multi-purpose wheel gun. I mainly want it to bring with me on trips, camping, and fishing etc. But I also would like one that a guy could use deer hunting if he ever wanted to. Traditionally I've always liked .357 mags. I've shot a couple .40 cal that I really liked. I'm open to any suggestions really. I don't want anything huge and too heavy. I'm a die hard bow hunter, I have a lot of long gun experience and some hand gun experience but I'm not a pistol expert. I'd be interested to hear any suggestions. Thanks.

Glad you guys take so much pride in your work, and care about attention to detail. I remember the first thing I ever got mounted. The most beautiful woody drake I ever saw let alone was lucky enough to harvest. It was me and my best huntin' buddy's (my dog) first bird together. I was SO excited to have it mounted!...What I got back looked like something that had been sitting in someone's attic for 30 years. I was so dissapointed, it made me sick! We still have the photos and memories, but mounts are special to people....Anyway, just wanted to say kudos. Keep up the good work.

Looks great! Congrats!

I agree.

Beautiful!!!

Awesome! Way to go!

Wow!...Great buck!!!

Wow bucks dropping antlers already? Crazy, typically they don't start dropping around here til around late January into February. Had a couple bucks last year hang on til March, which was crazy for here.

Very cool!

Wow!

sweet deal dude!

It wasn't just the fact that he pretty much said everyone was unethical and did illegal things that bothered me. It was also the blatant generalization that he was so sure everyone here did certain things like shooting at deer 50 yards out or more...I've been bowhunting for almost 20 years and have never even thought of shooting my bow at a deer that far. Who the heck is this guy (who doesn't know me!), to tell me what he is so sure I've done?! Yeah, maybe not everyone here is a saint, maybe there are some shady characters. Yeah maybe there is some harmless imbelishment from people from time to time. But man, he went overboard like he had a major axe to grind against all other hunters. Well, anyway it's not worth my time to worry about something so ridiculous.
