Which mulie to mount??
Hey All,
I've been playin around with a new deer form and a couple sets of antlers from deer I shot in the past. Both deer look good on the form, I'm curious to see what the 'public opinion' says as to which one I should play with on this form. The cape I'm using is a smaller cape so its a smaller neck on the form. Both deer score about 5-8" apart from eachother from what I remember.
The first buck is a buck I killed back in 1999. My first 'good' deer and he's hung in my garage for several years since! Was a fun hunt and a good respectable deer.
Deer A
The next deer is a backpacking deer I shot in 2008. Great fun hunt and a hard hunt to find a 'good' buck. I ended up shooting this guy quickly and although we saw one bigger than him that trip, it was a good choice I think.
Deer B

Do both!
But I find A more impressive. I'm not the measurement type though. Perhaps B is superior. 'dunno

Both are great deer, do both if possible. It if you've got to pick just one I'd go win A.

Rack, the results of this survey are so totally one-sided that I think you should just give me Mount B. Everyone hates it but I'll take it off your hands.

Haha ya maybe instead I should just chop up the antlers and make some nice key chains outta that guy eh?
I think Deer B is an older deer....but hard to tell. Definitely has more mass and is wider, but Deer A looks pretty slick on this form too.
I'm sure I'll end up getting bored and mounting Deer B as well sometime soon!!

A mule without brow tines definately doesn't look as good. "A" is a very stunning rack and would look much nicer mounted!!

Something about B reminds me of the stag on a bottle of Jägermeister. That would look sharp over a bar I think.
