Got my Antelope back!

[Musket Man]

Picked my antelope up from the taxi today! He came out really nice although I thought I had told him to turn him the other way or I messed up and told him the wrong way. Either way he looks great just ended up putting him in a different place then I was planning on. But I think a nice muley would look better in that spot anyways

 

[CoHiCntry]

Looks nice!

 

[mnhoundman]

Looks real good MM! He did a great job!

 

[Musket Man]

The more I think about it I think i was thinking about it backwards and the taxi mounted him exactly like I told him to. oooops! LOL better my fault then his I guess.

 

[Ikeepitcold]

Very cool man! Looks great, with the others you got a great start on a man cave.

 

[marcusvdk]

That looks great, that taxi did a good job. That looks like a room that brings back some good memories and stories. Also a great man cave

 

[Musket Man]

Thanks! I built that room a few years ago almost entirely out of used lumber I got for the taking! The deer next to him is from eastern Montana in 06 and the scrubby antelope next to that was my first Wyoming antelope also in 06 and Im still not sure why I let my cousin talk me into mounting him. lol

 

[marcusvdk]

He convinced you to mount it cause it was your first antelope and you wanted to remember it

 

[shootbrownelk]

Hey Musket, those are some nice animals you have there. They look great against that wood.

 

[Work2hunt]

They all look great to me. Hopefully I can add one of those in the next year or two.

 

[DABAU]

Very nice looking mount and looks great in the trophy room. Every man should have there own trophy/man room! I hope to put an antelope in mine this year.

 

[Timberstalker]

Nice MM! Love the man cave

 

[Alabama]

It looks like he did a good job, that's a good antelope, I also like the one on the left. That muley on the left is awesome: good height and width. Congrats on the trophies MM!

 

[Musket Man]

Thought I would include a closer pic of these 2. They are both from 2012. Antelope scored 76 and deer was 146 with his weak forks.

 

[dhershberger]

Very nice! hope to draw a tag and get one of those things on my wall someday

 

[N.Y.ArcheryMadMan]

Love the Room and the Mounts......

 

[marcusvdk]

Musket Man, What are those ribbons from? You when some prizes for a trophy contest with those mounts? I would be happy with just one of those great animals.

 

[sjsmallfield]

Looks awesome MM. I had finally just quit thinking about getting my mule deer back from this year until you posted this. Thanks alot. Lol

The red ribbon is from the antelope next to it winning 2nd place current harvest at our local outdoor show last year! There was a monster from NM that made mine look like a fawn that got first! I am going to take him back this year for prior harvest since he wasnt mounted yet for the show last year and I only took the horns and Ill take my new antelope this year to see what he scores and to support the show. The other ribbons are just for participating in the show. Ryan Hatfield was there last year and liked my antelope alot which made me feel pretty good! Talked to him for quite a while, he's a really nice guy!

Thats awesome! Let us know if yeah get another ribbon or what not. I always love going to the local hunting shows and talking with people. Great way gain/share some knowledge with other hunters.
