Great looking Mount, a little character with that chewed up ear.

Very nice....A fine addition to the living room...

:lol: Very nice and it looks well done! Don't mean to be personal, but what would something like that cost me if I ever get one to do? Also how come you are calling it a 5 point? It was my understanding, from those I talked to that you count only one side and don't include the brow tine. I know in the USA they count them all. Anyway good for you!

...you count only one side and don't include the brow tine. I know in the USA they count them all.
Muleys you only count one side without the brow.....whiteys it's one side with the brow.
And we're not in the USA so it's a 5 Point Whitey Buck.

Great Looking Mount, John ! 8)

Thanks for the info re counting tines of deer. Maybe he was having me on or didn't know himself. Veerrrry Interesting!!!

[john-brennan]

I know how to count points where i live, it cost $540.00 plus tax.

Nice deer John!

Very nice deer and excellent mount. Yout taxidermist knows his anatomy. In what region did you get the buck?

The point count is more of an east-west thing than Canada-US. My relatives in Washington and Montana would call that a 5 pt but Ontario would say 10 pt.

[john-brennan]

I picked him up close to you, Rock creek (Kettle river).

Beautifull mount! I cant wait to get one of my own!
