My Mexico "Double-double" bucks are back

Recommended Posts

I finally got my deer back from Dan Lee at Artist Touch Taxidermy in Dewey, Az. I got both these nice bucks on the same day, along with 2 javelina on another day on a hunting trip in Mexico. I entered the larger buck (124") and wrote a photo-essay about my adventure for the 2012 Coues Whitetail buck contest. Here's the link to the story: http://www.coueswhitetail.com/forums/topic/37747-my-mexico-double-double/

 

The buck won 1st place for a typical Mexico deer and I won 1st place for my photo-essay! I was able to choose a discounted full mount donated by Dan as one of my 1st place prizes, and since I already knew Dan, had him mount the deer for me. He did a fantastic job! He's also mounting 1 of the javelina for me also. Those are the 2 javelina skulls in the pedestal cabinet.

 

Jay Williams from Diamond J Furniture in Prescott Valley made the lighted pedestal cabinet for me and found the juniper branch for the top.

I am super happy to have it back and on display!

 

Here's a couple of pictures of my "Double-double" mount.

That is an amazing pair of bucks. I like the fact that they are quite different in character and shape. I would not have passed either of these bucks. Beautiful mount. Your room looks too empty, you need to add more of these trophies! Congrats.

Beautiful mount. I will have to keep Dan in mind next time I'm ready to have something mounted. Looks like we live in the same 'hood.

That's the coolest deer mount I've ever seen.
