My trophy's ( only 2 )
Hi guys I wouldn't call it a trophy room because one hangs in my reloading room and the other in the den over the fireplace. Anyway here they are.
This one and the next are the same Buck taken opening day 1994. He measures just over 17 inches inside spread with 18 inch height. Nice mass and long brow tines made for a pretty mount to me.


The next 2 are of a Buck I took the week of Thanksgiving 2002.
He hangs in my reloading room.

These are all I have mounted but there have been a couple in between that I have regreted not mounting. Both bucks were taken in North Carolina since I have never hunted anywhere else. Hope you enjoy them!

Thanks for sharing!
I have no experience in judging whitetails, but they sure look like great trophies to me! And the mounts are well made too.. Smiler

Yes they were both taken in NC. I have never been outside my home state hunting but I hope that changes next year.
The first is a large buck but not uncommon in the area he was taken. I don't have access to that place anymore since the company I used to work for owned it. It was a beutiful place right on the river.
The second buck is not as large but for the area he came from he was a trophy for sure.
The second is a full 2 inches narrower and almost 4 inches shorter in height.
Thanks for the compliments!!
