Well-done!

Another notch in the Green Machine...congratulations Bryce he is a bruiser! Now the real dilemma, which picture to frame the one with the hat or without?

Everytime I read your stories, either here or in TBM, I become more impressed.  You always seem to adapt to the conditions at hand.  In a stand, on the ground, heat, cold, in state or out, it never matters.  Good stuff.  Congrats.

Great buck Bryce! Congrats!

Thanks for the kind words, it's really a little too much.  But given the fourth block sociology class I have, I'll take the compliments.    

The neat thing about a lot of my recent deer is how they were taken.  Each presented some unique challenges or approaches, and while you don't hear too much about my techniques when they don't work...ha!...sometimes when a plan does come together it's deeply rewarding.  

Honestly, a skull mount of a nice whitetail looks really cool, takes up far less room, and costs less although I honestly find the process to not be much fun.  I actually haven't mounted too many recent bucks at all, even with a taxidermist brother giving me a slight discount.  If I ever get a new place in the country with more room, I may start a beetle barn of my own to make the process much easier.  I wish I'd not mounted a lot of the bucks from my younger days when I was single and had nothing else to spend the money on.  One of these days I'll have to take some pics of my new arrangment in the trophy room with a couple rows of nice skull mounts.

Thanks again for the kind words!  It's fall, and you gotta love the chase.

I'm with you Bryce, Skull mounts are Cool! I Guess other people have money to throw away. Pictures are worth a Thousand Words!

Congrats Bryce    He's a dandy glad you stuck with it and found him.

Bryce- Very nicely done. I'm sure you would have put in as much effort had it been a doe. Good for you! And on a side note, good for us as I recently read your 20+ questions regarding the push for crossbows in your state. Very thought provoking, especially convincing folks we choose to take a harder path while appreciating a little solitude in the woods. Using a long bow at close range gives much more weight to your opinion and credibility to a stance you hope others will join. Thank so much for all you do for us! Mike

Congrats !
