    Guided hunt from the weekend

    Big buck down this weekend, bit disappointed that the hunter is just going to skull cap him and throw him in the shed but each to their own

    He was my favourite buck on the property, sad to see him go in a way but great in another!

    BH

    Maybe he has to put it in the Garage...... He looks kinda Hen pecked

    I imagine his wife wears the pants and has told him "It's not bloody coming in here!"

    $2300 seems reasonable for a Trophy as far as Trophy fees go that is.

    I'd have gone for the full shoulder mount.

    Cheers
    Pete

    Cheers Pete,
    Nah this guy just tagged along with his son who was hunting because I think he didn't have anything better to do that weekend. Wasn't really that interested in the head, after the pics he never looked, touched or spoke about the head for the rest of the trip. I asked him if his heart was racing when he took the shot but he said "nah not at all". The best way I could describe it is he was about as excited and caring of the buck as I am of a hare. But the clients that really appreciate the deer more than make up for it, love being able to put a smile on a hunters face and know I'm being a part of a big moment in their hunting life they'll never forget.

    Well done BH. That is a bloody good looking buck. Each to his own though, I would have left the head where it fell.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
