    Wow that timber is awesome, absolutely love it. Just read the story and that tahr had an amazing mane on it. It's nearly time to start the 2025 stag and Buck thread...!

    Finally finished off my Fallow buck from mid last year. I wasn't confident in the rear skull holding together on a skull hook but it seems to be sturdy enough. Really happy with the main skull, the smaller fragments were really tricky to get clean though and I made a mistake by gluing all of them together and then to the skull as one piece. This resulted is some large gaps in places, I'd start from the skull first next time.... but boy I will be trying my darnedest to not make such a mess of the next beautiful stag/buck/bull!! It's made a classic euro seem like a breeze in comparison.

    Very nice
    Hunt safe, look after the bush & plug more pests. The greatest invention in the history of man is beer.

    A bit more bang is better.
