2012 Muley is BACK!

[WyOpitz]

I got my muley back this weekend from the taxidermist! He still has some of his velvet on there (or remnants of), I took him in Wyoming. He is a 6x5 with the longest brow tines I have seen on a Muley. I'm guessing he is in that 150-160 range?? Gave me the bug to go deer hunting already! Darn...it's gonna be a long wait!

Beauty!

150-160 range??

Higher! Great buck!!

I bet you broke 170 with that guy. You aren't long arming the picture, it gives a pretty fair estimate.

Nice...166.

Yeah...that long-arming crap is one of my biggest pet-peeves when it comes to hunting photos! lol

Nice deer, I'll say 168 3/8 but I'm not the best judge on cleaned up deer. Or on the hoof... My score for that deer would be 'shooter'.

 

[Bowhuntrben]

No idea on the score, but he looks great!

 

[LuckyMike]

Real nice buck! I think that sticker might help him gross out real close to 170.

 

[RobG]

Any guesses why some of the antler tips are so dark?

 

[sbhooper]

Score doesn't matter. Great deer.

 

[Toadslayer]

He's over 160 for sure, I'm gonna say 171 1/8th
Nice buck.

What county?

Looks like dead velvet that didn't get rubbed off.

Very nice buck.

 

[JMG]

RobG . . . I was wondering the same thing. Some of those tips are very dark. Curious as to what may have caused this.

Very nice buck.

Nice euro..like the bone color.

 

[BBwheelgunner]

that thing is a stud! looks like the mount turned out great too

You are right, I debated rubbing it off but decided to leave it in its natural state. Glad I did too!!

Very nice rack and Euromount, but the longhorn over that beautiful fireplace/mantle has a much better spread, LOL!

You'll be glad you did. If you did strip it off it would be pretty white underneath without any staining. I think it looks cool

Nice buck.

Niobrara...around the Lusk area.
